NCAA Tournament 2010 betting odds for Washington vs. Marquette with a line of -2 favoring Marquette at SBG Global (see website here)
An intriguing game in the NCAA Tournament will be played on Thursday evening as 11th-seeded Washington faces 6th-seeded Marquette. This is the third straight year Marquette has been a number six seed in the NCAA tournament. Two years ago they beat 11th-seeded Kentucky in the first round before losing to third-seeded Stanford in overtime in the second round. Last year, Marquette beat 11th-seeded Utah State and lost to third-seeded Missouri in the second round. It is the fifth straight year the Eagles have made the tournament.
Not much was expected of Marquette this season since they lost three starters but the Eagles really came together late in the season winning 11 of their last 14 games. The Eagles don't have much of a bench so the starters are a big key. Marquette had some nice wins this year over Villanova, Georgetown and Xavier so they are capable of making a little run in the NCAA Tournament. Lazar Hayward is their big scorer. He was named second team All-Big East this season. Marquette is a good shooting team, especially from long range. The Eagles averaged 72.9 points per game this season while they allowed 64.2 points per game.
The Huskies had what could be considered a disappointing regular season but they made up for it by winning the Pac-10 Tournament. Washington has some players who can make an impact including Quincy Pondexter who leads the team in scoring.
