Let’s be 100% clear about this: Marquette absolutely deserved to win by 28 against Georgetown on Friday, and they did, 92-64.
It’s just that, for a stretch there, it looked like this was going to be a game.
After a standard issue back-and-forth to start the game for the first 10 minutes, a transition layup by Tyler Kolek kicked off a 20-3 run for the Golden Eagles. By the time it wrapped up, Marquette was up 42-24, and it looked like things were tipping heavily in their favor. And then, with 2:52 to go in the first half, Kolek racked up his second personal foul.
