Seton Hall at Marquette picks and predictions
Prediction
Marquette 80, Seton Hall 60
Moneyline
No interest. PASS.
Against the spread
This series has seen Marquette go 7-1 ATS since 2021. The Pirates are 0-3 ATS in their last 3 road tilts, and in 2 of those games Seton Hall has suffered ATS deficits of more-than-10 points.
The Eagles excel in creating opponent turnovers, and Seton Hall has proven to be loose with the basketball. The Pirates offense has cratered in recent weeks, and the still-fighting-for-a-key-conference-tourney-seed Eagles should push this margin to around 20 or so.
TAKE MARQUETTE -17.5 (-110).
Over/Under
Threes are a big part of the Marquette offense, and Seton Hall struggles in defending the perimeter. And Marquette figures to get more than a few baskets in fast-break fashion off Pirates miscues.
Add in some expected regression in Marquette’s shooting percentages — helping on offense and hurting on defense, and the OVER 134.5 (-115) is a solid play.
