Marquette vs Northern Illinois: Three Things We Learned

We all know that your Marquette Golden Eagles can shoot the lights out. Between Markus Howard, Andrew Rowsey, and Sam Hauser, they have three of the best shooters in the country. However, last night Marquette did not shoot the ball very well. MU finished with a 30% mark on threes and an effective field goal percentage of just 49.2%. They got open looks as evidenced by the 23 triples hoisted by Hauser and Howard combined, however, they did not finish them. Howard, Rowsey, and Hauser all missed wide open threes and a few others that were only slightly contested.
