It was 5-0 Marquette after 90 seconds on Thursday night at Fiserv Forum and with that, the game was over. I’m kind of overstating that but also I very much am not, as MU rolled easily to a 95-58 win over Long Island University. The Golden Eagles are now 3-1 on the season.
LIU would get their first points of the game from Jacob Johnson to pull within five points on the next trip down the court, and that’s the closest they would get the rest of the way. Marquette busted the game open with a 10-2 run capped by a David Joplin three-pointer that made it a 21-8 ball game at the 12:47 mark, and the lead would never go back to single digits again.
