- Marquette's victory over Nevada on December 12th set several records and may go down as one of the ugliest wins in school history. Marquette attempted a record 110 shots, while Nevada attempted an opponent-record 88 shots. As one would expect, all of those shots also resulted in a record number of rebounds, 80 for Marquette and 66 for Nevada.
