The Butler men’s basketball responded from their loss at Georgetown with yet another blowout loss at the hands of Marquette, 73-57. The score did not reflect the nature of the game, as the Bulldogs trailed by as much as 28 points late in the second half. Butler yet again started slow, trailing by double digits less than ten minutes into the game, as the Golden Eagles cruised to just their second win in eight games — both now coming against the Bulldogs.
