"How did Seton Hall lose to Rutgers?"

They were preparing for THIS game.

[3degrees]

Rutgers handily beat Seton with their star player on the court. Maryland lost with facing Setons best player. Maybe credit RU as better than you think. Pretty ignorant statement showing no knowledge of NCAA basketball.

Can you read?

I knew this was going to happen. SH overlooked RU. Plain and simple. 

RU may be good, but I quoted what many people believed, and I made the statement that they were looking ahead. 

Not hard to figure out here.

Seton Hall wasn't looking ahead. 1. Willard is  a strict game by game coach. 2. Seton Hall - Rutgers is a rivalry (It's a classic game with an award for state supremacy). RU- SH is always a hard fought game and it means more to SH than just another team. If people understood Eastern basketball, they'd know this. Compare Ohio State-Michigan football. Even in down years for one team, does the other look past this game? I'd think not. Anyway, for those who saw this game, they'd know it was SH on their heels the whole game. SH actually had MD down impressively for most of the game as well and could have won by 20 if their star player  (All American) was there. He was not effective at RU being shut down before he left in the second half (actually SH played well without him). Home court makes a huge difference also.

You don't know that. 

40+ % of their OFFENSE was hurt. 2 players. Perhaps they're not known for DEFENSE, like the team they had out their last night.

Match ups are everything. 

With that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a Div 3 team beat us right now.

3 degrees are you a Rutgers fan?

Micah Potter gets out of NCAA jail today and will play. That will be nice.

Kid should have made up a story, instead of going about the transfer the right way.

Glad he's finally able to go.  Strange that OSU did everything they could to help him play and NCAA still said no.  Hopefully he can give the Badgers a nice boost.

Haarms out again against Butler. Not a surprise only 6 days after his concussion, but negates what would have been a major size advantage for Purdue. 

[ELA]

Purdue's offense is tough to watch.

They can't put the spherical thing through the round thing... So yeah .

This Maxey guy for Kentucky is the type of center that just eats K Wesson alive.

Haggans? Maxey is a guard

Edit: Hagans also a guard
