After dropping off the Associated Press’ radar two weeks ago, YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles are back in the receiving votes category this week.
Saying that Marquette is receiving votes, as in plural, is a bit of a strong statement, however. They have two points in this week’s poll, both of which came from a 24th place vote from Dan Fleser of the Knoxville News Sentinel. I’m not exactly sure what about Marquette’s win over New Mexico got Fleser fired up enough to put the Golden Eagles into the poll after leaving them out last week, but hey, I’m not going to argue.
