Down Goes Marquette!!

[ctchamps]

Great incentive for our guys to take care of business tomorrow and get the conference championship.

 

[Chosen]

So Creighton wins. Marquette is now three games back in the loss column. We need to take care of business tomorrow at home against Seton Hall. Go UConn

 

[Tenspro2002]

This is actually doubly important.

1) The obvious. If we win tomorrow, we win the Big East outright and clinch the #1 seed in the BET.
2) With Creighton's win, if we beat Seton Hall, we guarantee that Creighton finishes ahead of Seton Hall, which puts Creighton/Marquette at #2/3 in some order and means we would face Seton Hall or Nova (most likely) in the BET semis.

No Kolek or Ighodaro for Marquette today. Anyone know why?

Puts us in a championship game scenario at home, let’s get it done and bring out the trophy.

No Kolek or Ighodaro for Marquette to day. Anyone know why?

Kolek injured his oblique last game and didn't accompany the team to Nebraska. Ighodaro was back in his hotel room with an "illness".

Kolek - Oblique injury
Iggy - Sick. There's a bug going through Marquette.

Without Tyler Kolek and Oso Ighodaro, No. 5 Marquette doesn't have enough firepower in 89-75 loss to 12th-ranked Creighton

The fifth-ranked Golden Eagles hung tough for most of the game thanks to Kam Jones and David Joplin, but the Bluejays pulled away late in the second half.

Anyone know if we have to win the conference outright to cash our bets or if a share is enough?

I think most sportsbooks award winner as 1 seed. We will lose tiebreaker if we share.

It was great when I had Marquette in a parlay…then they’re down 2 with 5 to go.

Oso was sick. Kolek had to stay behind for tutoring.

Be careful. Be very careful with that. Mojo, Karma, all kinds of unpredictable sit at play here.

Best to just walk quietly past the scene and keep your head down.

Edit: just realized your post may have been in response to the original post rather than the sickness news. If that’s the case, all good. If not, “be careful” stands.

Kolek oblique strain and ogi sick in hotel. They played amazing in their absence. Tight game until late

I'm just welcoming back keyboard mouth, @mussels

Marquette played really well for 80% of the game without thier two best players. They ran out of gas in the last 5 minutes when Creighton just pulled away. They will certainly be dangerous in the BET with a healthy team.
