The Kansas Jayhawks start the NIT Season Tip-off tonight playing against the Marquette Golden Eagles, tipping off after the conclusion of the Louisville-Tennessee matchup. The previews of Marquette coming into the season were a bit scattered, and so to give us a clearer picture of the team we are going to face, I reached out to Brewtown Andy over on Anonymous Eagle, the SB Nation site that covers Marquette. He answered a few questions for us.
RCT: Marquette was nearly ranked in the preseason, towards the top of the Earning Votes category, and then got punished for losing to a ranked Indiana team on the road.
