Seton Hall -14.5 over St Peter...will post this now because it's a 12.00 noon game.Ahhh.I hate going against the peacocks today.I just think its a matchup problem for them.
The game has a lot of side stories to it.When Barrett was a senior at Rice HS a skinny soph by the name of Clark was his teammate sitting on the bench.Also Sweet was playing at Rice.On the flip side of that Toney-El was a teammate of Curry, Peters leading rebounder.
So you have some friends going at each other today.
Peter is 4-1 and coming off a Clark buzzer beater vs Yale the other nite in OT.Nicholls the super frosh came back down to earth and had only 13 pts.Watson another frosh is solid and Curry, Devonish and Hinnant can all score.
But peters problem is the bds.Clark is the 2nd best rebounder and he is 5'9.
They have beaten St francis,Loy Md and Yale. But Clark has dominated scoring 37 the other nite vs Yale.
Buy Hall brings in some greyhounds.Barrett at 5'10 will be all over his former HS teammate.And Barrett is one of the best pt gds in the country.I think Barrett can nuetralize clark.Lyr he held calrk to under 10 pts until the game was out of hand.Clark ended up with 23 but Hall won 97-80.
Hall has a group of 6'5,6'6's players in Sweet,Allen,Morris and Toney-el.All can score,shoot,slash and more importantly hit the bds.There are certain teams that peter can beat but this type of team with slashers that are quicker are a matchup problem.
Hall has good defensive rebounders and should be able to hit the off bds.All the above guys l avg 5 or 6 bds a game including 5'10 Barrett.
This game is being played in the meadowlands so its not really a home advantage for the Hall.There a lot of history to these 2 teams.St peter's always feels they are second class citizens.A lot of players were recruited by the Hall but never offered the scholarships.So that has to come into play.I had a player a few yrs back that went to St peter.
I'll never forget that nite.Peter lost by a few but my kid has 19 pts,12 bds,and 6 assits.Unfortunalty he was 3-9 from the FT line.Good coaching on my part.
Hall beat peter lyr by 18.The following yrs by 15,19,18,and 16.
I see the same thing this yr.Don't think they will blow them out.But by 15-18 pts.
Not a strong play.Clark could hit a fews 3's at the end.But guys like Sweet are so hard to matchup against because of there speed and size.And Barrett can get that fast break and transition game going.
Hall ..2 boxes..small play
I'm going to post this and come back since its an early game..
