Up until now, Marquette’s schedule was only partially completed. Amidst a string of non-conference tournament bracket announcements, we were expecting the Preseason NIT matchups to be announced about two weeks ago. We knew that Marquette was set to play two of Kansas, Tennessee and Louisville, but the first round games, or semifinals if you prefer, were still unknown. Those in charge of the event had trouble scheduling for whatever reason, so we had to wait until today, when Jon Rothstein blessed us with the first game announcements. YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles will face off against everyone’s historically-based mascot, the Kansas Jayhawks, and will face the winner/loser of Tennessee and Louisville’s game.
