Seton Hall vs. UConn Prediction
I’m sure UConn doesn’t forget about their horrid loss at Seton Hall earlier this season, but that was months ago. The Huskies shot worse than 38% from the field and less than 20% from three in that game. I’d be surprised if they follow that up with another dud performance against the Pirates at home on Sunday.
Nobody is gassing up this UConn team because they aren’t flashy, and they won a national championship just last season, but Coach Hurley has another loaded squad this year. Tristen Newton and Cam Spencer have both shot the basketball extremely well this season and the Huskies have some great pieces down low with Alex Karaban and Donovan Clingan.
When the Huskies lost Adama Sanogo and Jordan Hawkins, nobody thought they’d be back in contention for another natty. Well, it’s March and the Huskies are still ranked top-three in the country. They haven’t skipped a beat without Sanogo and Hawkins because Tristen Newton and Donovan Clingan have been so efficient. Some are saying the sophomore Clingan could end up being better than Sanogo. The 7’2” behemoth in uncoverable inside the paint…
Jaden Bediako is a solid big for Seton Hall after transferring in from Santa Clara, but will he be able to slow down Clingan for the second time this season. Looking at the spread, it seems oddsmakers are expecting a blowout in this one. If Seton Hall stood a chance, they wouldn’t be getting 15 points on the spread after already beating the Huskies. This is a ginormous spread for a Big East contest. Fade the Pirates this afternoon, they’ve already beaten UConn once this year and this big spread is extremely telling.
