There is sunlight shining on one basket at Hinkle. Never seen that before. Can't they cover the windows out there?

I'm sure they'll figure it out by the time Butler's shooting at that basket.

Home court advantage.

When Butler Fieldhouse was first opened in 1928, the court ran the other direction. I believe it was turned in 1933 in part because players would be running into the sunlight depending on the time of day. It also didn't help that the majority of the seats were on the baseline instead of the sideline.

Xavier finds themselves in a battle at DePaul, 42-40 with 15 minutes to go. I wish this game was on TV

DePaul is hanging tough on Senior day. I find myself caring about this Xavier/DePaul game almost as much as MU's game. Really hoping for 7 bids.

[Bill Marsh]

JaJuan Johnson, an underrated player for Marquette, is having the game of his life - 18 points in the first half, reached 20 on the first play of the 2nd half.

[Bill Marsh]

Marquette is having their way with Creighton, 16 point lead. With 9:49 to go.

[Bill Marsh]

Xavier persevered and won by 14. Congratulations!

[marquette]

Looks like MU and CU are both trying to lose this one. The big lead will probably hold for us though.

[Bill Marsh]

Huge win for Seton Hall. On the road. Huge.
