Glad I'll be able to catch the game. So far I haven't missed one! Going to watch UNF tomorrow at seven, then come back and watch the Gators on TV.

Since it's showing on ESPN2, I'd expect it should be available on ESPN3.

My view exactly. 2006 and 2007 were plenty exciting winning the NCAA tourney. 2008, 2009 and 2010 were exciting living on the bubble, maybe a bit less so in 2008. 2011 and 2012 making it to the round of 8 were very exciting too.

How do we gauge this Marquette team? Are they as good as the one we beat last year in the tourney, or should they be a double digit win for us?

Lost 50% of their scoring and top two players from last season... Big East POY Jae Crowder and Johnson-Odom. They are not as good, imo... though balanced and relatively deep. A pretty solid back court. Forwards Gardner and Wilson are strong players. Center Otule is 6'11, good shot blocker, limited scorer.
I think we are better at every position and think we should win going away.

My father got his Naval Sciences degree from Marquette back in the 40's so I always root for them - except when they play against us.

Good to be back in the Dome! Missed some being out of town for Thanksgiving. Time to get serious about this season!

I gotta hand it to the Rowdies. Got here at 8:15 and the lower bowl section was already full and overflow student section on level 3 about 80% full. They were already heckling Marquette during their warm ups.
