So I see Marquette is 1-3 in conference which surprises me some. Losses to Seton Hall, Villanova, and Xavier, yet they beat Creighton. Anyone have some scouting commentary on this matchup?

Really looking forward to the game and a busy January schedule.

and they beat wisconsin which is one of the top 2 OOC wins in the BE along with nova's win at texas. losses to Hall, Nova, and Xavier will all be "good" losses at the end of the day. marquette has the talent to finish in the top 5 of the conference.

I’ve seen them a few times, not full games but watched portions. That’s a very talented 1-3 team with real nice size. Much like the remainder of the regular season our guys will need to be on their game, rebound the basketball to win this one.

I am pumped to have Husky hoops on! Is tbis a FS1 game? Does anyone know?
 
This is again at 9:00 right? So far that’s the only downside of the Big East. Haven’t seen Marquette. Don’t think there is anybody we can’t beat if we play our A game.

Over 47% of the population in the U.S. is in the Eastern time zone. 29% is central. 9:00-11:00 is past prime time for the audience of this game.
 
I'm looking for Polley to have a good game too here against Marquette. He looked better last game, more in the flow of it, and I could see that he had good confidence and energy.

9:00 start is ideal for those of us with little kids. Can safely get them down to bed well before tip. I don't really care about getting to bed early now since my morning commute is walking downstairs to get coffee.
 
Had the hour drive to Milwaukee for this game circled ever since we announced the return to the Big East and somehow we can't figure out how to allow limited capacity for events in Wisconsin. Disappointing...
