No offense, but how is SHU a 13 point favorite in a game vs. an LIU team that has been rock solid for a while now? They may have lost some of the guys from those teams, but that program has been quite good recently. SHU just lost to one of the worst teams in D-1 in FDU. Hopefully they do win by 13, but I'm just surprised.

I'll grant you that the home court + the instate rivalry should make this game close and somewhat unpredictable but I'll take Providence in a close one. URI struggled against UNC-Asheville at home just last week. They struggled against D-II Metro State on a neutral court earlier in the month. They were blown out by the 2 decent teams on their schedule so far, Arizona and SMU, by 30 points apiece. Providence should have enough weapons to win this one.

Wow, I didn't realize just how bad RI is projected. 10-20. Real dangerous type of game- instate rival and being away. Win and you're supposed to- but lose and it's a loss that hangs around you like a noose all year long.

"The Holy Father, Pope Francis, Has Imparted the Apostolic Blessing to Seton Hall University. The Holy Father, Pope Francis, has imparted the Apostolic Blessing to Seton Hall University, making it the first and only university in the United States to claim such a rare honor....In May, Ines Angeli Murzaku, Chair of the Department of Catholic Studies, wrote a letter to Pope Francis, announcing the establishment of the department at Seton Hall and respectfully requesting the Pope's blessing and his special prayer for the University and for the Department of Catholic Studies, its faculty and students. It took several months to hear back from the Vatican, as this request was new and unique."

This Seton Hall game is embarrassing. There is absolutely no one in the stands.
