College Basketball Previews for the Seton Hall Pirates vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish at VegasInsider.com, The Leader in Sportsbook and Gaming Information - College Basketball Game Previews

Notre Dame is second in the conference with 204 3-pointers and third in scoring at 75.7 points per game.

Defensively, however, the Irish are 15th in the 16-team Big East in opponent 3-point percentage (36.0) and must contend with Hazell, a career 34.1 percent shooter from beyond the arc whose 2,053 points are six shy of Greg Tynes for third on Seton Hall's all-time list

Austin Carr into the Ring of Honor tonight.

 

[IrishLax]

Must win game. Lock this one up and we are guaranteed 4 seed or better.

 

[DomeX2 eNVy]

With St. John's win today, it looks like we will have to win out to get the #2 seed in the BE tourney - which will be tough with Nova and UConn ahead; whereas SJU has the Hall and SFla. But you never know in this conference.

That said, I have us with a double digit win tonight (had to use real $, since the vBucks version isn't up)

 

[IrishandColts]

is there anywhere to watch this online?

 

[Irish Man3]

You dont want to watch. One of the worst games I've seen in awhile.

 

[PLACforever]

We are getting NO penetration

 

[IrishLax]

This is terrible. We can't buy a shot against really a pretty crappy zone and it doesn't help that the refs are "letting them play." A lot of fouls both way not called so far. We typically live on the free throw line. Reminding me of the WVU game atm.

 

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

Let's go Irish!

 

[Epitome]

They need to get their heads out of their butts. Come on ND!

 

[DomeX2 eNVy]

Lucky to only be down 3 at half after that performance. In good position to take the second half.

 

[Irish Man3]

Abro with a nice jumper to end an ugly first half. Hopefully, they can carry some momentum into the second half.

 

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

Sweet buzzer beater by Abro.

 

[Epitome]

Yeah! it was nice to grab a little momentum the last couple of minutes.

 

[Irish Man3]

Austin Carr averaged 34.6 point per game for his career? Holy crap.

 

[IrishandColts]

This is horrible. Seton Hall is really poor, and we're playing worse (and winning). Ugly, and we will get run in the BE tourney.

 

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

Let's finish them off Irish

 

[IrishLax]

Worst held ball call there. Make these free throws, go home happy.

 

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

Although it was ugly. I'll take the win. Go Irish!

 

[NeuteredDoomer]

I've always thought "rolling" the ball on the floor on the inbounds is the dumbest concept in any sport. As if it saves any time. Was so happy to see ND force the jump ball there at the end when St. John's tried that most idiotic move in any sport. And I didn't jinx the team today. I only watched the last minute.

Wrong, seton hall won by 30 at syracuse and should have beat uconn. Far from terrible

 

[GreatGolson]

with #1 #4 #5 all loosing again we should move up i see #6?

 

[PADOMERNUT]

No, Duke won't fall that far.

 

[NeuteredDoomer]

Fox Sports article mentions possibility of 11 Big East teams in tournament play.

Big East Conference could send 11 teams to NCAA tournament - College Basketball News | FOX Sports on MSN

 

[Irish Man3]

I think they'll get 11. They deserve to get 11.

Pittsburgh
Notre Dame
St. Johns
Louisville
Georgetown
Villanova
Connecticut
Syracuse
Cincinnati
West Virginia
