BIG EAST action resumes on Tuesday with Marquette visiting DePaul. FS1 will televise at 8 p.m. ET. Marquette won the first meeting 76-72 on Feb. 1. The Golden Eagles are in a three-way tie for fifth place with Butler and Xavier at 8-8.
Sunday’s game between St. John’s and Creighton showed that a pregame glance at the standings and team statistics is not necessarily a predictor of the outcome. The Johnnies, who entered the game 307th nationally in 3-point shooting made 14 of their 22 tries from beyond the arc and beat the No. 10 ranked Bluejays 91-71.
