With the way the results have fallen, Zips need a win against Marquette. A loss would almost certainly knock the Zips out of the Big East tournament and even a tie would put them on shaky ground.
There are lots of scenarios outlined in the Big East web site, but the Zips make the Big East tourney if they win, but can't get the two seed without a Creighton tie/loss.
