The 8th-ranked Marquette Golden Eagles men's basketball team have another tough matchup against a top 25 opponent.

They'll host the 12th-ranked Texas Longhorns at Fiserv Forum Wednesday night. Texas is Marquette Coach Shaka Smart's former squad.

We were lucky enough to talk to some of Marquette's biggest fans, who just so happen to be the parents of two of the players.

Stephanie Mitchell, mother of Stevie Mitchell, and Lisa Joplin, mother of David Joplin, joined TMJ4 News Today to discuss the excitement around the big game vs. Texas.
