First things first: It's the final game of the regular season, so that means it's Senior Day for Marquette. They'll be honoring the careers of the 13 seniors on the squad, the first four year players in MU history. It's those 13 players that have created the foundation of this program, and it'll be a pretty big deal all the way around.
It's an even bigger deal because there is a postseason berth on the line here. Well, kind of. Let me explain.
It's true that Marquette can get into the Big East tournament regardless of whether they win or lose against the Bearcats on Friday night.
