In a minute, you’re going to read a preview for Thursday night’s Marquette Golden Eagles women’s soccer match that sounds an awful lot like I find the opponent dangerous for Marquette. That’s true! It’ll make sense when you get there.
However, the facts of the standings in the Big East are what they are through six games played for the Golden Eagles: They’re in a tie for fifth place after dropping both of their matches on their East Coast swing last week. It’s not great! But it is what it is. We also can’t ignore the fact that Marquette is currently in front of Thursday’s opponent in the standings.
