What to Know
The Marquette Golden Eagles will take on the Ole Miss Rebels at 7 p.m. ET Thursday at TD Arena. Marquette isn't expected to win, but seeing as the odds didn't stop them last game, maybe the team has another upset up their sleeve.
The Golden Eagles escaped with a win on Monday against the Illinois Fighting Illini by the margin of a single free throw, 67-66. Guard Darryl Morsell (21 points) was the top scorer for Marquette.
Meanwhile, Ole Miss made easy work of the Charleston Southern Buccaneers last week and carried off a 93-68 victory. Ole Miss was heavily favored coming into this game, and the results showcase why. Their guard Jarkel Joiner looked sharp as he had 24 points and seven assists.
Their wins bumped Marquette to 3-0 and the Rebels to 2-0. We'll see which team can carry over their success and which team inevitably falls when the Golden Eagles and Ole Miss clash.
