Marquette is on its worst run of the season, having lost four straight with a tough road game against BIG EAST foe Seton Hall ahead.
The Golden Eagles (13-10, 4-7 in BIG EAST) are looking to rebound after a National Marquette Day downer against Providence while the Pirates (17-6, 6-4 in BIG EAST) fell to Villanova last Sunday after keeping it close for most of the game.
Given Marquette’s recent form, this matchup is must-win territory. The Golden Eagles have slid out of most of the national media’s NCAA Tournament projections. A road win against an experienced Seton Hall team could reverse that trend.
