Cards on the table: Marquette women’s basketball is riding a very thin line.
Over the weekend, the Golden Eagles escaped from Indianapolis with a narrow win over Butler. That game improved Butler’s NET by three spots from #131 to #128... but worsened Marquette’s, knocking the Golden Eagles from #39 to #42. And yet, as ESPN’s Charlie Creme updated his bracketology effort on Tuesday morning, Marquette finds themselves going from First Team Out status last I checked, to Second To Last Team In. That means a First Four game for the Golden Eagles, but in is in, let’s not ask questions.
