Marquette is a team that less than 1% of people on espn.com picked to be in the sweet 16, and even less picked them to beat North Carolina. The Golden Eagles have already reached the sweet 16, their first time since 2003. Tomorrow night they will go up against the heavily favored Tar Heels of North Carolina. At first glance this game appears to be one that Marquette can not win, however, when you take a closer look at the matchup, Marquette could have a chance to pull off the upset. They are lead by Darius Johnson-Odom, along with Jimmy Butler and Jae Crowder. These three players will create matchup problems for the Tar-Heels, on both ends of the court. This game could turn into a track meet, because both teams love to get up and down the court. UNC definitely has the advantage, but Marquette is a tough team with lots of heart.
