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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
We’re getting closer and closer to the 2026 college lacrosse season every day! We’ve already made some preseason award and honors picks for Big East women’s lacrosse, so go check those out if you haven’t already. Here we’re going to do the same for Big East men’s lacrosse, as we have to get on the […]
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 […]
I started off Sunday afternoon’s Marquette men’s basketball game on the road against UConn waiting for the other shoe to drop. It looked like the first one fell as the Huskies popped off a 10-2 run in the middle-ish of the first half to go up 20-10, their first double digit lead of the game. […]
Right after the Big East announced the availability reports for Marquette’s men’s basketball game against #4 UConn on Sunday morning, three hours before tipoff, the official Marquette team Twitter account provided a slight bit of extra context. Sean Jones is out for Sunday’s game with some sort of foot injury. Props to whoever was manning […]
Your eyes do not deceive you! It’s time to talk about women’s lacrosse in the Big East for the 2026 season! Given when Marquette’s season will start, and then working backwards from there on a timeline to bring you a season preview, I need to make my preseason all-conference picks now so I am well […]

It’s not a gigantic day of college basketball on national television, but that’s not surprising. It’s the final Sunday of the NFL regular season, and how many tippity top college hoops games do you really want to spend against that calendar? In any case, there are 23 games on national television today, with a majority […]
I would like it if Marquette would stop being interesting. The 73-66 loss to St. John’s on December 29th was run-of-the-mill interesting as far as basketball goes, as Marquette missed 14 layups in the game. Four in were in the fourth quarter, all of which were when the Golden Eagles were within a possession. If […]

HELLO AND WELCOME TO 2026! It’s the first Saturday of the year, and since we’re past the majority of the college football playoffs/bowl games, there is A TON of college basketball on national television today! I’m counting 37 games in total, split 36 for the men and one for the women. The one women’s game […]
On New Year’s Eve, I had it pointed out to me that Ken Pomeroy, the proprietor of KenPom.com, the always helpful college basketball analytics website, had made a teeeeeeny tiny update to his website. Nothing major, no real changes, just a new addition. Now, in addition to the Four Factors and the usual shooting percentages […]
If I had told you on New Year’s Morning that Marquette was going to have the following conditions for their game later that day on the road against Xavier, what would your reaction have been? It’s not a rosy projection, is it? But thanks to a 14-0 run led by six points from Halle Vice […]
The missed layups were the problem on Monday night against St. John’s, but there’s an argument to be made that Marquette women’s basketball had a lot bigger problems than that against the Red Storm. As I was starting to put together this preview, I couldn’t help but notice that the game against the Red Storm […]
On Tuesday night, Marquette men’s basketball lost 79-73 to a Seton Hall team that’s just a shade outside the Associated Press top 25. If you want to think and talk about that, please head on over to our recap of the endeavor. What happened after the game ended is something that happens after every game […]
As I watched Seton Hall blast past Marquette in the final three minutes with a 13-0 run to flip a seven point MU advantage to a six point SHU victory, I thought to myself, “oh, right, this team hasn’t gotten a chance from their terrible non-conference performance to learn how to win games when it […]
