5 in a row? Hell, many here didn't see 5 all year.

Think this one comes down to the wire. Hope our guys hit their free throws.

I see it similarly. I actually think Butler has an edge matchup wise, but we're home, have a different attitude this year and are the much better defensive team. I think that'll be just enough to push us over the hump. Hall by 2 in that scenario.

Conversely, this could be the game that our free throw shooting costs us a game. I'm amazed it hasn't yet this season. Tight one either way I think. Butler by a bucket or two if they defend better than average and our free throw shooting is poor.

Angel continues rewriting the record books at Seton Hall for double doubles. Pirates get to the line and make a ton of free throws to pull away by 8 at the end. Butler in foul trouble all night as two foul out.. A very long home win streak is just getting started.
 
Will try to continue my hot streak of predictions but I hope it's wrong.

Marquette: Me 77-62; Actual 79-62
Georgetown: Me 70-60; Actual 69-61

Bad news tonight...I feel a loss. 78-74 Butler. If we win tonight, 5th in a row, then this team will have erased any doubt in my mind that we belong in the Top 3-4 of this conference and we are a notch above the next tier of teams.

I have a really bad feeling about this game.

A win would require a good shooting night. We are due for one of those. We'll see.
 
Dunham and Jones have killed us in the past. I don't remember what, if anything Kelan Martin did, but he's their leading scorer. THIS is the game I saw as a bad matchup, not Gtown

BU - 84
SHU - 80
 
I unfortunately have to go with Butler on this one. I think season fatigue is setting in and the kids sorely need a few more days of rest.

Butler 75, SHU 63
 
I think this games goes into OT and Butler wins because they make their free throws.
Butler - 78
SH - 73
 
Roosevelt Jones scares me but this team deserves the benefit of the doubt from me given the recent stretch since The loss to CREI. The Hall gets the W by at least 1...
 
Butler has gotten it together from a slow start . But I'm going with the Hall .The defense can win this and foul shooting has got to come around .
 
Seton Hall 70 Butler 67

IW & Carrington hitting free throws down the stretch. Butler is
going to be the desperate team.
 
C'mon! These are kids... how tired can they be? They've played every Saturday & Wednesday for the past 3 weeks.. that's 2 games per week at 10-30 mins / game. Is that too much for an 18 year old D1 athlete?

KC & Desi bounce back tonight & Seton Hall continues to roll at home... 75-64.

Agreed. Being tired can't be an excuse. Play lock down defense. Rebound. Make your free throws. We win.

Originally I had this as a loss but if we limit our turnovers and IW gets others involved and has over 6 assists we win. I think our free throw shooting will determine this one. SH 73. BU 70.
 
For some reason I feel like this is the one that trips us up. Maybe it's the shellshock from last year's games with them, LOL.

I'll say we pull out a tough one, 71-68.

haha... I think all of us have that feeling to an extent. We have been playing too well, and history says we are due for a clunker. This teams just seems different, everyone seems to have found their role so I am staying optimistic. .
 
We had a clunker against Gtown & didn't play very well against St John's. Don't think we're due for a bad game. Tough match up for us in the past.
