Scoring Defense - 10th

Scoring Margin - 10th

Field Goals Percentage - 6th

Free Throw Percentage - 5th

3-Point Field Goal Percentage - 3rd (bet no one expected that)

Field Goal Percentage Defense - 10th

3-Point Field Goal Percentage Defense - 8th

Defensive Rebound Percentage - 10th

Offensive Rebound Percentage - 9th

Rebounding Margin - 10th (minus 8 rpg)

Blocked Shots - 10th

Steals - 3rd

At KenPom, we rank 9th in the conference.

Interesting that Butler (39), Providence (40), STJ (43), X (44) and Creighton (48) are bunched up and on the early bubble.

Even DePaul comes in at 174. Pretty impressive conference top to bottom.

Marquette's rankings within the Big East that Phantom Warrior mentioned are a bit skewed based on the fact MU has played the toughest schedule to date.
