The Big East Tournament gets underway on Wednesday and the late game has #25 Marquette facing Seton Hall. The Warriors will definitely get an invite to the NCAA Tournament while Seton Hall would need to make a deep run in the Big East Tournament to have any kind of chance. Jerel McNeal leads Marquette, scoring 13.6 points per game. He scored 22 points in Marquette’s loss at Syracuse on Saturday. Marquette has given up an average of 77.3 in their last three games. "We've just got to have a different defensive attitude," head coach Tom Crean said. "The story of the game for us was we did not create enough points off our defense. That's how we play. We weren't physical enough, we weren't aggressive enough and they capitalized." SBG Global reports that early NCAA Basketball betting has the public taking Marquette at Home.

Marquette is 1-2 in the Big East Tournament in their history, as they joined the Big East for the 2005-2006 season. "We don't have a lot of goals, but we feel like if we can get to the semifinal game on Friday night that you have an opportunity to play for it all," Crean said. "Getting to the championship is incredible, winning it would be incredible, but if you're playing in the Friday night semifinal game that's what we aspire to get to, and I think we can do that."
