Golden Eagles wrapping up two-game road swing
The No. 10/10 Marquette University men's basketball team (19-6, 11-3 BIG EAST) wraps up a two-game BIG EAST road swing on Saturday, Feb. 11 at 11 a.m. CT when the squad travels to Capital One Arena to face Georgetown (6-19, 1-13 BIG EAST). FS1 features the television broadcast, with Matt Schumacker (play-by-play) and Tariq Turner (analyst) calling the action. Following Saturday's outing, the Golden Eagles return to host No. 13/15 Xavier on Feb. 15 at Fiserv Forum.
Marquette Owns Edge In All-Time Series
Marquette owns a 20-14 advantage in the all-time series, with the Golden Eagles claiming wins in 10 of the last 13 outings.
All but two of the series matchups have come since Marquette joined the BIG EAST in 2005-06.
The programs first met during the 1941-42 campaign and the Hoyas were able to claim a 35-34 victory. The next meeting didn't come until the 1971-72 season and Marquette posted an 88-44 winning decision.
Marquette claimed a 95-73 victory on Jan. 7 at Fiserv Forum in the first meeting this season. The Golden Eagles trailed 36-34 at the intermission, but outscored the Hoyas 61-37 over the final 20 minutes to pull away for the win. Guard Kam Jones led four players in double figures with 17 points.
MU Exceeding Preseason Expectations
Picked to finish ninth in the preseason coaches poll and without a player on the all-conference roster, MU begins February in sole possession of second place behind Xavier with an 11-3 record and is the league's top-ranked squad in the Associated Press poll.
No. 10 Marquette, off to its best league start since 2018-19 (12-2), is in possession of its highest ranking since it was 10th on Feb. 25, 2019. MU has already surpassed last year's total of four road victories (5), the most recent coming Jan. 28 at DePaul. Of the team's next five outings, three will come on the road.
