Marquette Men’s Basketball, The Preseason Associated Press Poll, And You

Do you remember how the last Associated Press poll of the 2022-23 season for men’s basketball went for Marquette? If you don’t, that’s fine, we can remind you. The Golden Eagles wrapped up the season in the eyes of the poll — before the NCAA tournament, by the way — at #6 in the country, marking the first time that MU was in the final poll since 2013. It was also Marquette’s best finish in a final AP poll since 1976, when Al McGuire’s team was #2.

So, with that in mind, and remembering that Marquette returns four of the five starters from a team that won a Big East regular season title and earned the best NCAA tournament seed in program history, that prompts questions to mind.
