Marquette Owns Edge In All-Time Series
  Â
Marquette owns a 20-14 advantage in the all-time series, with the Golden Eagles claiming wins in 10 of the last 13 outings. Â
  Â
All but two of the series matchups have come since Marquette joined the BIG EAST in 2005-06.
  Â
The programs first met during the 1941-42 campaign and the Hoyas were able to claim a 35-34 victory. Â The next meeting didn't come until the 1971-72 season and Marquette posted an 88-44 winning decision.
  Â
Marquette claimed a 95-73 victory on Jan. 7 at Fiserv Forum in the first meeting this season. Â 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. Â Guard Kam Jones led four players in double figures with 17 points.
MU Exceeding Preseason Expectations
  Â
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.
  Â
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. Â MU has already surpassed last year's total of four road victories (5), the most recent coming Jan. 28 at DePaul. Â Of the team's next five outings, three will come on the road.
