On Sunday, January 28, Marquette will be hosting #1 Villanova at the Bradley Center in a major nationally televised game on Fox. It comes just one year and four days after the Golden Eagles knocked off the #1 ranked Wildcats in the BC, giving MU their first ever regular season victory over a #1 ranked opponent. To both celebrate the anniversary and preview Sunday’s game, we’re going to let the AE staff tell you their stories and memories from that January 2017 night.
When Ben suggested the idea of everyone sharing their stories or memories of Marquette’s win over #1 ranked Villanova a year ago, I began to ruminate on what I could write about, and I was suddenly struck by a realization.
