Marquette men’s basketball lost a game for the first time this season during the past week. The good news is that it was in their third game in three days and it was a competitive game against the #2 team in the country AND it was after Marquette already beat the #1 team in the country the day before.
Net results, in the eyes of the Associated Press voters? #1 Kansas drops to #5, one spot behind where Marquette was last week, everyone else moves up one spot. That’s why Purdue is the new #1, Arizona is the new #2, and YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles are the new #3 team in the country!
