Hoosiers To Host Marquette As Part of 2018 Gavitt Tipoff Games

The Indiana University men's basketball team will host Marquette in the 2018 Gavitt Tipoff Games on November 14 in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. The matchup is part of an eight-game series between members of the Big Ten and Big East Conference. This is the third time IU will participate in the event. The Hoosiers defeated Creighton in 2015 and fell at Seton Hall last season. IU was 16-15 last season, while Marquette finished 21-14.

This will be the 10th meeting between IU and Marquette, with IU holding a 7-2 advantage in the series. The teams last met in the 2001 Championship game of the Great Alaska Shootout with Marquette taking a 50-49 decision.
