Marquette with a disappointing loss

Marquette's loss to Pittsburgh hurts in a couple of ways. This is probably their worst conference loss, the game wasn't really close down the stretch for the first time in Big East play. The game was at home against a good but not great team. Lazar Haywood couldn't buy a bucket late in the game. The intensity was still there, but overall not a great effort by the Golden Eagles. The tournament isn't guaranteed at this point.
