For the third time in three weeks, junior guard Markus Howard put Marquette’s offense on his back to take down a top-15 team.
Friday night’s victim of the Markus Howard show was No. 14 Buffalo, as the Golden Eagles took down the Bulls 103-85 at Fiserv Forum.
“The emotions were so high. I don’t really remember much of what was said,” Howard said. “But I do remember just telling my guys, ‘We do belong here’ (on the national stage).”
He made history in the process, tying the program record he set three weeks ago for points in regulation and points at home with 45 points.
