1H Marquette -3.0 (-105) Risk 3.15 to win 3.00
Marquette vs Providence
In the name of the Friar, and the Spike, and the Holy Smokes! Marquette is fresh off of a bounce back win against ranked Villanova after a loss to Creighton who could not miss a shot at home. Even after dropping the 1stHalf by 10 in Omaha, Marquette is top 25 in 1stHalf margin this year and a lot of that comes from home court. Sure, Providence has seemingly broken out a bit, but all against teams that are way down the list. They had to shoot 40% from perimeter just to eek by DePaul, but don't be surprised to see Marquette harness their inner Gator and play defense a lot closer to what Florida showcased when Providence was 0-for-9 in the 1stHalf from deep. As it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end. Spike now and forever, Amen.
