Andrew Rowsey brings the ball up the court in last year's upset of then-No.1 Villanova.
It is nearly impossible to forget the last time Marquette met Villanova. Last January produced one of the most memorable regular season wins in program history, as the Golden Eagles came back from a 17-point deficit to take down then-No.1 Villanova 74-72.
This year, No. 3 Villanova (13-1, 1-1) is coming off its first loss of the year to Butler 101-93, and Marquette (11-4, 2-1) is fresh off a 95-90 overtime victory in which Markus Howard set the program scoring record with 52 points.
