Texas Women’s Basketball vs. Marquette: Odds, streaming info, pick
As head coach Vic Schaefer and No. 3 Texas women’s basketball attempt to get back to their winning ways, the team heads out to the Bahamas for the Bad Boy Mowers Battle 4 Atlantis. The Battle 4 Atlantis is set to play out for Texas over the course of the next three days.
And it all starts for the Longhorns on the afternoon of Nov. 19 against the undefeated Marquette Golden Eagles.
Texas comes into the Battle 4 Atlantis with a record of 1-1 (0-0 Big 12) following a tough 83-76 loss at the hands of the UConn Huskies on the road on Nov. 14. The lone win on the season for the Longhorns came over Louisiana at home at the brand new Moody Center in Austin on Nov. 11, by the final score of 68-45.
Meanwhile, Marquette comes into this game with a spotless record of 3-0 (0-0 Big East) following a convincing 73-47 win over the crosstown rival Milwaukee on Nov. 13. Marquette has yet to play a single game this season that it won by less than a 20 point margin.
Here’s a look at the betting odds, streaming information, and game prediction as Texas gets set to face Marquette at a neutral site to open up the Battle 4 Atlantis at Paradise Island in the Bahamas on Nov. 19, with the tipoff time set for 4 p.m. CT.

Picking Texas vs. Marquette
The Battle 4 Atlantis features some of the biggest games that will remain on Texas’ non-conference schedule before Big 12 play commences on Dec. 31 against Kansas State.
The winner of this Texas-Marquette game will face the winner of the Louisville-Gonzaga game in Round 2. The other teams in this field outside of the four mentioned above are UCLA, Tennessee, Rutgers, and South Dakota State.
Moreover, this Texas team should be able to take care of business against a hot Marquette squad to get back on track in the Battle 4 Atlantis this weekend. Senior transfer Sonya Morris and junior Taylor Jones are off to a nice start for the Longhorns this season, combining to average more than 30 points per game between them thus far.
I think the duo of Morris and Jones is enough to get the Longhorns over the hump in a big bounce-back win to start this run in Paradise Island this weekend.
