Marquette Women’s Basketball Preview: vs Georgetown

Twice in the last five games, Marquette has let a massive opportunity go past them. First it was missing 14 layups at home in a 73-66 loss to St. John’s. Then it was immediately wasting a 20-5 lead on the road against Seton Hall by giving up a 17-0 run bridging the first and second […]

A Game of Runs: Seton Hall 64, Marquette 61

Seton Hall won one hell of a 22 minute basketball game on Wednesday night at Walsh Gym, surpassing Marquette 42-41, and it was only that close because Jordan Meulemans hit a three at the horn to drag the Golden Eagles within one. “But wait,” you say, “college basketball games are 40 minutes long, aren’t they?” […]

Oops, There It Goes: RV St. John’s 92, Marquette 68

With FanDuel pitching the line at 13.5 on Tuesday morning when I was throwing together the Game Thread, and with KenPom.com estimating the margin at 17 points, I wasn’t holding out a lot of hope for a victory as Marquette headed to Madison Square Garden to face St. John’s that night. And then the official […]

Marquette Women’s Basketball Preview: at Seton Hall

On January 9th, ESPN’s Charlie Creme put out a new bracketology for women’s college basketball, one that we will not judge harshly because it is after the first of the year. He lists both Marquette and Seton Hall has Next Four Out there with the Golden Eagles one spot in front of the Pirates, and […]

Big East What To Watch: Week Eleven

As I type this on Monday morning, classes are back in session at Marquette for the spring semester, and so I presume that’s the case around the Big East. That’s a little guidepost on our way through the college basketball season, and so we continue to march towards the postseason week by week. As always, […]

Film Session: Marquette’s Last Possession vs Villanova

Shouts to Andrei over at Paint Touches, as he very helpfully answered the call I put out at the top of the recap of Marquette’s 76-73 loss to Villanova. My biggest flaw as a basketball observer/recapper/blogger is that I stink at recognizing what is happening live. As such, when I saw Chase Ross badly miss […]

Just Keep After It: Marquette 67, Creighton 49

From the first four minutes of Thursday night’s adventures at the McGuire Center, it seemed that it was likely that Marquette was going to be able to assemble enough possessions to beat Creighton if they kept going like that. Obviously, they weren’t going to shut the Bluejays out after going up 8-0. But the Golden […]

DOESN’T MATTER, STILL COUNTS: Marquette 66, Xavier 65

For about 28 minutes on Wednesday night at Fiserv Forum, I was thinking, “Man, I don’t know what the final score of this game is going to be, but I sure do like the attitude and fiery approach and overall sense of gritty toughness that Marquette men’s basketball is showing here tonight.” Over the span […]

Marquette Women’s Basketball Preview: vs Creighton

Okay, so look. Marquette isn’t going to shoot 61% on three-pointers every single game for the rest of the year. BUT Sunday against Villanova was the second time this season that Marquette has connected on over 60% of their three-point attempts, and the second time in Big East competition, too. The Golden Eagles have hit […]

Marquette Men’s Basketball Has A New Players Edition Uniform Set

On Monday, we got this short teaser video from Marquette men’s basketball, with a brief clip of Earl Tatum talking about MU uniforms of the past. On Tuesday, we got this full reveal video of the somewhat obvious tease from Monday of Marquette’s brand new player designed uniform set. And yes, in case you were […]

Big East What To Watch: Week Ten

They can’t all be winners, I suppose? We might get some entertaining games this week, and maybe some thrilling endings, but at a glance, there’s not a metric ton of highlights in this week’s Big East basketball slate. Heck, as you scroll down, you’ll realize I highlighted a team that is 1-3 and a team […]

Here we’re going to do the same for Big East men’s lacrosse, as we have to get on the […]

Keep Making Your Three-Pointers: Marquette 85, Villanova 69

Six days ago, Marquette women’s basketball lost their last game of 2025 maybe perhaps exclusively because they missed 14 layups in a seven point loss to St. John’s. They came up with an interesting preventative measure to that idea on Sunday afternoon at the McGuire Center against a Villanova team that came in at 5-0 […]
