It’s time for Marquette women’s basketball to put the non-conference slate in the rear view mirror, both literally and metaphorically.
The Golden Eagles begin Big East play on Thursday night, so the non-con games are, in fact, over. Marquette also has to put their near misses from those games behind them and forget about them.
A one point road loss to New Mexico. A two point overtime loss to now-#7 Tennessee. An overtime loss to #2 Notre Dame.
The Golden Eagles are currently sitting on just one 25th place vote in the Associated Press top 25 poll, but they’re three favorable bounces of the rim away from probably being a top 10 team.
