Marquette started the game going 6-of-7 from the field, building a 13-4 lead early over Creighton. TOBY! Hegner proceeded to miss two straight threes that sandwiched a Mo Watson make, leading to a dry spell and letting Marquette capitalize on their lead a bit.
Things began to turn around for the Jays when Cole Huff and Khyri Thomas entered the game. Khyri ran a pick-and-roll and threw a lob to Zach Hanson that ended their scoreless spell. Then, Cole Huff scored the next 8 points and the game was tied at 17-a-piece.
From then on the game teeter tottered much like it did in the first game just 11 days ago.
