Marquette has carved up that zone 6 straight possessions now.

Syracuse can't figure out Marquette's 2-3 zone even though they play against it every day...

I don't see Florida having a problem with either of these teams.

Syracuse would give Florida trouble with their length and that zone.

Florida showed earlier in the season that they're significantly better than Marquette. Though each match up is different.

Toss up. Will be a great game. McGary has been playing like an animal.

If Florida hits the 3-ball from outside, tough team to beat

Marquette started to figure out the zone with Gardner in the high post. Insertion of Mayo provided a threat from the outside which opened things up a bit. I'm looking for a much better second half

Who'd Marquette beat?
14-4 in Big East

Not exactly a strong resume.
10th in strength of schedule

strength of schedule in the country....Irrelevant number is irrelevant
Part of a resume

MWC had the highest-rated conference

Strength of schedule is a rating.

Yes they have overachieved as a 3 seed as they beat a 2 seed.. But with their resume it is not an incredibly far reach.

Game is going to come down ironically to Syracuse figuring out the Marquette zone. I see Syracuse settling for more outside shots than they want to shoot. If they can make some then it will loosen the zone but you can also break the zone down with penetration by slice them up.

I think this will be a nail bitter

Well except with paint, you know (most of the time) you'll be happy with the final product

Not so much in this offensive explosion

Interesting fact.. According to SI's Tim Layden, "Marquette Sr. Chris Otule is playing with 1 eye, goggles, huge knee brace (ACL) and custom shoes on oft-broken feet."
