What to Know

The Seton Hall Pirates have the luxury of staying home another game and will welcome the St. Peter's Peacocks at noon ET Nov. 12 at Prudential Center. These two teams come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous games.

Seton Hall took their contest against the Monmouth Hawks on Wednesday by a conclusive 79-52 score. The Pirates got double-digit scores from four players: Tray Jackson (12), Tyrese Samuel (11), Tae Davis (11), and Al-Amir Dawes (10).

Meanwhile, while not quite a landslide, the game between St. Peter's and the New Jersey Tech Highlanders on Monday was still a pretty decisive one as the Peacocks wrapped it up with a 73-59 victory at home.

Seton Hall is the favorite in this one, with an expected 16-point margin of victory. Those taking them against the spread are banking on an outcome similar to that of the team's contest on Wednesday, where they covered a 20.5-point spread.

The wins brought Seton Hall up to 1-0 and St. Peter's to 1-0. A pair of last-season stats to keep an eye on: The Pirates rank 15th in college basketball when it comes to takeaways, with 12.7 on average. But the Peacocks enter the matchup with only 13.4 turnovers per game on average, good for 24th best in college basketball. We'll see which of these strengths -- offense or defense -- will win out.
