After they celebrated New Year's Eve with victories, two of the top teams in the Big East will go at it in Milwaukee when No. 8 Marquette hosts Creighton on Friday night.
Marquette (12-2, 3-0 Big East) took care of Providence on the road on Tuesday, dominating 78-50. It was the Golden Eagles' first win at Providence in six seasons.
Kam Jones led the way with 18 points and 10 assists with his former backcourt mate and now New York Knicks rookie Tyler Kolek watching from the stands.
"He's a willing passer, that's the most important thing," Marquette coach Shaka Smart said.
