Marquette comes into this game ranked fourth in the country and with a chance at earning a top seed in the NCAA Tournament should they at least earn a split with UConn and win the Big East Tournament. The Golden Eagles come into this game with the 3rd ranked scoring offense in the Big East. They are third in field goal percentage and third in 3-point shooting. The Golden Eagles are fourth in the conference in 3-point field goals made per game. On the defensive end, the Golden Eagles are sixth in scoring defense in the conference. They are seventh in field goal defense and just eighth in 3-point defense. The Golden Eagles are 10th in the Big East in total rebounds per game this season but are the best team in the conference protecting the basketball, ranking first in fewest turnovers per game.
