Marquette escapes by the skin of their throats

Providence is not a good team. Marquette is. Marquette has to, has to, beat teams like Providence to get an at large bid in the NCAA tournament. Of course, the game went down to the final possession, and for once Marquette's opponents missed a game tying shot. Marquette escaped, but obviously that is better than losing. Marquette almost lost to Providence with the Three Amigos to this same Providence team, but ultimately prevailed. This game was similar, with this years team pulling out a much needed victory, especially on the road.
