Marquette won 74-71 just a month ago, but there are much bigger stakes this time.

Katz wrote this, and it seems that there are some quotes from new Big East AD's, but I think it's BS.

What? If Marquette wins today's game it "validates" the new league? Hell, they're already in the Elite 8. One good or bad game will determine the validity of the league? I think not. Why isn't Katz writing that the America Conglomeration of Northern Southwestern Institutions of the Midwest would be validated if Louisville wins? Oh, that's right. They're only stuck in that mess for one more year. None of the ongoing members are anywhere around, but never mind. ESPN televises them.

The Big East (the real one with the C7, Butler, Creighton and Xavier) just needs to keep winning and the blowhards from ESPN will have no choice but to shut up or else they'll continue to look like fools. If ESPN keeps it up people will eventually tire of their shtick and turn to Fox. ESPN will hurt themselves more than they'll hurt us. For now, go Golden Eagles!

Terrible start for Marquette. Probably lucky they aren't down more. 18-7 right now.

Yuck.

Still, this season was a resounding success for the program. I think most of us were just hoping we could sneak into the tournament, but we came away with a conference championship and an Elite Eight. Always disappointing to see the end, especially an ugly end just shy of a Final Four, but you'll never win them all.
