Seton Hall vs Wagner Best Picks and Prediction
Seton Hall Pirates have my vote going into the game. The Pirates just played against a tough Iowa squad, shooting a disappointing 35.8 percent from the field while committing 16 turnovers and 25 fouls. But in terms of rebounds (40-38; 18-13 offense) and assists (14-10), Seton Hall prevailed over the Hawkeyes. The Seahawks have a few solid wins under their belts so far, but if the Pirates are on a roll, they would be no match for the team from Newark.
Pick: Pirates -15.5 (-110)
