Didn't read one negative thing on there. Most thought they had a good chance to win. We do too

Correct.  My bad.  I knew that. Brain cramp

They aren't calling it a gimme. They're calling it winnable. It is absolutely a winnable game for both teams. It's an 8/9 matchup -- it's designed to be a winnable game for both teams.

Yep, this one is a coin flip for bracket purposes. I'm curious to see the Vegas line. I suspect pick em to maybe SH by a couple.

Hope Moses shows up. He completely disappeared today and we have to have better inside presence.

Part of today was just being overmatched. Part of it was not hitting open threes; playing sloppy half court offense in stretches; and Moses really struggling.

We will most definitely need to see Moses show up. SH has a decent big. Hope we can get him into early foul trouble to open up the paint a bit. Will be a tough game...I'm a bit concerned of their superior physicality given today's game. They don't do well from the free throw line though so we have that going for us.

"No one can say the selection committee screwed us this time around."

"Really like the draw we received! Hall can handle Arkansas if we play our game."

"I don't know a thing about Arkansas this year." - Speaks volumes about how invisible Arkansas Basketball has become in the 21st Century.

"Their best wins vs at-large teams are vandy(twice) and South Carolina."

"Another thing that caught my eye. They beat everybody they were supposed to. Game cocks where their only upset win." -  Well it was a quick review, the Missouri game will be noticed later in the week.

I agree.  I expect this to open up as for Seton Hall to be a very slight favorite, around 1 or 2 points. 

[Jackrabbit Hog]

And all of Hogville collectively said, "Argh!"

[BoarnSupremacy]

"Another thing that caught my eye. They beat everybody they were supposed to. Game cocks where their only upset win. Level of competition was way down for the SEC. we played 7 NCAA teams twice. That level of competing should be a big help for us."
 


I think this comment may have some merit.

I think they got bit by Glen Rice and somebody named Robinson.

Wasn't that a triple OT final?

Has zero bearing at this point of the season. Everyone in P5 conferences are ready.

Seton Hall is not deep. We get the game going up and down and attack the rim and draw fouls, we will win.

[PORKULATOR]

I hope their players have the same attitude as their fans. They're so layed back about it and comfortable. Not one ounce of fear from their fan base.
Makes me want to beat them by 25.

Me too. In looking at their schedule results, they look like a team that plays to the level they perceive their opponents to be on.

[ronmahony]

Watched them the other night, their center is a beast. Lot better than Bam  I.M.O.

That could be a problem.  We didn't have an answer for Adebayo today.  He killed us.

How are their guards?

Nope.

They think playing in same time zone is an advantage   haha        They beat Marquette and Butler but lost to them too.  I think hogs wear them down last 10 minutes

[passinghog]

I think playing a Seton Hall team will prepare us from a toughness standpoint. Tough big east team with a bruiser inside; beating them would put us in the right mindset of going against Carolina. UNC is typically soft under Roy. Will the late game aggressiveness carry over to Seton Hall?

[Letsroll1200]

Powell can knock down the 3 ball and Carrington is a strong finisher in the backcourt. The big guy I think we can handle if we keep him off the boards.

[12247]

This game will come down to who comes to play and mental toughness and that scares the hell out of me.

[DeltaBoy]

We need to drill the Hall.

[PonderinHog]

Speaking of relieved, I hope they piss their pants after we whip their asses!

[TNhawgfan]

I'll give them credit. Most on that board are reasonable after a loss, unlike hogville
