Man, I love it when Marquette men’s basketball plays an awesome game at Fiserv Forum. Ain’t nothing like it. Even more so when they win.
That’s what Wednesday night was, as Shaka Smart’s #20 ranked Golden Eagles cashed in the celebration of the 2003 Final Four team by securing an 83-75 victory over #22 Providence. With the win, Marquette is now 15-5 on the year and 7-2 in Big East play, just half a game back of 7-1 Xavier, since the Musketeers lost at DePaul on Wednesday as well.
Marquette did not do a fantastic job of stringing together stops in this game.
