We’re keeping this preview simple.
ITEM #1: Marquette women’s basketball has lost two straight games, both because of fourth quarter collapses.
ITEM #2: Marquette hasn’t played a full 40 minutes front to back quality basketball game in over a month.
ITEM #3: Connecticut is the last remaining undefeated team in the country and they have been #1 in the Associated Press poll every single week this season.
ITEM #4: UConn’s average margin of victory this season is 39.7 points.
ITEM #5: UConn’s average margin of victory in Big East play is 46.0 points.
ITEM #6: Marquette lost by 36 in their road game against the Huskies earlier this season.
ITEM #7: UConn has won 14 straight games by at least 30 points. That includes a home game against Villanova, the team in second place in the Big East, which they won by 49 points. It also includes a 30 point win over then-#15 Tennessee and a 38 point win over a Notre Dame team that had just barely slipped out of the top 25.
CONCLUSION: Keeping UConn under 90 will be an accomplishment. Scoring more than 53 points will be an accomplishment. Losing by 35 or less will be an accomplishment.

Marquette is 1-23 all time against Connecticut. The Golden Eagles picked up their only win in the series during the 2023 regular season, downing #4 UConn at the McGuire Center. The Huskies have won all seven meetings since then, including putting Megan Duffy at the helm of the single worst offensive performance in the history of MU women’s hoops in the 2024 Big East tournament semifinals. That happened. Never forget.
