Seton Hall vs DePaul College Basketball Betting Preview
These two have a combined 2-19 record in Big East play, which is brutal.
Shaheen Holloway’s defense has fallen off a cliff this year, and this is a tough matchup.
Seton Hall’s aggressive dribble-penetration denial is vulnerable to teams that can create weak-side secondary offense through short-roll, catch-and-shoot or pick-and-pop opportunities.
Unfortunately for the Pirates, Chris Holtmann’s Blue Demons do precisely that, playing five-out attack-and-kick basketball while mixing in plenty of David Skogman pick-and-pops — although he’s likely to miss this game with an undisclosed injury.
On the other end of the court, Seton Hall is extremely limited offensively to crude downhill-driving dribble penetration and offensive rebounds.
That said, DePaul’s deep-drop defense will funnel ball-screen creation — the Blue Demons are also horrific at defending those sets, allowing the fifth-most PPP nationally (.96, per Synergy) — which will allow Isaiah Coleman and Chaunce Jenkins to create shots in the middle of the court.
But DePaul is a half-decent defensive rebounding team that can keep Hall off the boards, and then this turns into a poor math equation for the Pirates.
Ultimately, I expect the Blue Demons to trade 2s for 3s at home in a convincing victory.
