Yeah, wow. Bad defense. A lot of standing around on offense. Seton Hall is faster to the ball and way better, must be shooting 80% from floor, with half being layups. Just dominating. 3 missed one-and-ones.

I'm going to blame this lead completely on the banked-in three, lol.

Seton Hall going into today was #85 in the NET. Wonder if they win big if they could get into the top 75 which would get some teams some Q1 wins.

Hope not. I'd hate to knock a Q3 loss of Rutgers' resume lol

I had a write-up a couple-few weeks ago, which i decided not to post, about what a 96-team NCAA tourney could look like.

I'm bringing this up because after watching 4 months of college hoops (not just today's dominance), Seton Hall is absolutely deserving of an NCAA bid.

There are 360+ teams in D-1. Go to 96, which helps the Big East cuz each year we have bubble teams. Have a couple of play-in rounds to get to 64.

It can be done in a cool way and fair way without hurting the top teams. I'll post sometime this weekend maybe.

Gotta disagree with you, billyjack. Today's first half shooting was an anomaly. I think Sha's the right coach and will get us there, but SHU isn't an NCAA tournament level team this year

[stever20]

even with a win today, Seton Hall would be 16-14 vs D1 schools. That's not a NCAA level team. today would be 4th Q1 win. 6-6 in Q2 and Q3 combined.

I'll have to look at it deeper, but tough to think youre not deserving of a bid.
