Kind of a weird game in that it was a three-possession or less game throughout most of it, but it also never really felt like Villanova was threatening outside of one second-half sequence that ended in a backbreaking twist for the Cats. Barring a miraculous 9-1 finish to the season, any hope to an at-large bid is pretty much gone. Just an unbelievable 180 after six weeks of really good basketball culminated with the win over UConn.
Cats fall to No. 10 Marquette 87-74
