Want to know the value of pulling an upset at home over the #4 team in the country?
It’s precisely five points worth of votes in the Associated Press women’s college basketball poll.
Marquette women’s basketball beat #4 Connecticut for the program’s first ever win over the Huskies last Wednesday, and now, on Monday, MU has gone from no AP votes to five points worth of votes. That makes the Golden Eagles the unofficial #35 team in the country this week. Florida Gulf Coast is one spot ahead of Marquette with six points, while Cleveland State is one spot behind with two points.
