Sorry to keep this short, but for the first time in far too long I'm actually going to take in a UConn game in person tonight, which has put a crunch on my time. With that said, UConn fans should be in for a very good game tonight. KenPom has the two teams neck-and-neck, with Marquette at 58th and UConn at 60th and the two teams strengths (Marquette has a slightly more efficient offense, UConn is better on defense) complement each other nicely. Oh, and of course it's the start of Big East play, which is fantastic all around. If you haven't yet, be sure to check out our Q&A with Anonymous Eagle. I also journeyed over to their neck of the woods to answer a few questions, so check that out as well.
