On Al’s Night at the Bradley Center, Marquette punched their ticket to the NCAA Tournament, demolishing Louisville, 69-48. Brad Galli reports from Milwaukee, where a very exhausted Buzz Williams was left gushing about his team. Darius Johnson-Odom’s dunk (and Buzz’s reaction to it) was also a hot topic after the game.
Todd Warner chats with ESPN College Basketball Analyst Fran Fraschilla about “how good Darius Johnson-Odom can really be,” Buzz Williams as a Head Coach, and Marquette’s tournament chances. The two talked after Marquette defeated DePaul, February 3, 2010.
Darius Johnson-Odom led the Golden Eagles to a hot start to I-94 rival DePaul and finished with 21 points. Brad Galli reports from the Bradley Center where Marquette gets back to.500 in the BIG EAST, with an 80-69 victory. Lazar Hayward explains how important DJO is to the team, while Buzz Williams explains an old philosophy he learned about how to evaluate his team’s success.
