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.

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

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.

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

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

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.
