Final Thoughts:
Marquette didn't play a great game, but was more disciplined than DePaul and won this game at the foul line. Golden Eagles shot 28-32 from the charity stripe. As for the Blue Demons, they didn't give up until they started losing players to foul trouble. The Blue Demons will hope to regroup and focus on Sunday.

Blue Demons will go to Providence and play the Friars, on Sunday. While the Golden Eagles will go to Cincinnati, to play Xavier on Saturday.
