The 2016-17 Marquette men’s basketball team will be remembered for a number of things, namely knocking off No. 1 Villanova, but its stellar 3-point shooting and second half collapses are just as much a part of its identity. Despite shooting 11-of-20 from 3-point range the Golden Eagles lost a backbreaker at Providence, 73-69.
Marquette led by 12 points with 7:20 to play but failed to make another field goal for the rest of the game, allowing the Friars to finish on a 21-5 run.
With 15 seconds remaining the Golden Eagles inbounded the ball down one point.
