I tried searching the sketchup help and such but I can't figure out a way to do it. I have my marquee made up and want to apply it to my model however even though the dimensions are correct it loops it. Any way to center it on there?

I was having the same problem.
Repositioning the material is the easiest of position texture operations. To reposition a material:
1. Context-click on the material to display its context menu.
2. Select Texture > Position. A matrix of dotted lines is displayed on the material to indicate the material's individual tiles. The cursor also changes to a hand and four pins are displayed.
3. Drag the cursor on the surface to reposition the texture on that surface. If you want to rotate the tiled image, context-click on the surface again and select Rotate or Flip.
4. When you are finished modifying the texture, context-click and select Done, or just click outside the texture to exit the Position Texture tool.

As far as I know, If you don't want to tile, draw a rectangle in the face around the tile at the right position. Then apply the default texture to the area outside the helper rectangle. Last step, choose smoothing surfaces and let coplanar lines hide.
