6-8 Davante Gardner’s ability to make significant contributions was unclear going into Thursday’s NCAA tournament opener following an injury to 6-foot-11 starter Chris Otule. As a result, this was one of the last games to have a line posted.
“Everybody just says we’re little, and we’re going to get pulverized inside,” head coach Buzz Williams said. “And then if you study those numbers, actually we’ve been more potent in the paint than any other team we’ve played, except Louisville in our last game. I think our guys have done a really good job.”
Marquette versus good offensive teams - scoring 77+ points/game after 15+ games is a very impressive 11-2 Against The Spread over the past three seasons.
Marquette has lost only one of its last seven games while Brigham Young has lost two of its last seven.
