The Pirates are 13-9 and 5-6 in Big East play a full 6 games behind the Huskies. Their BE home wins are St. John’s 74-66OT and Georgetown 71-54, with the road wins being Georgetown 57-49, Butler 64-50, and Xavier 61-47. While their losses at home are against Providence 46-51, Villanova 45-50, Marquette 54-74, UConn 59-83, on the road are Creighton 49-57 and Villanova 41-69. UConn has played every team except Xavier winning the 11 Conference games by an average of 28.6 points. The Pirates SoS by Massey is 72nd and rated 74th, UConn's SoS is #1 and is rated 4th.

Offensively they are ranked 87th while defensively they are ranked 55th vs UConn being ranked 3rd in offense and 4th in defense.
Seton Hall has 9 SR's, with 1 SO and 3 FR’s, so they do have somewhat of an experienced team. Three of their starters have played all 11 Conference games. Azana Baines F 6’1” SR who averages 33.4 min, 15.1 pts, 6.2 rbds and 1.6 stl and 2.4 t/o’s. Micah Gray G 5’8” SO averages 31mins, 9.8 pts, 2.4 rbds 1.3 ast and 214 t/o’s. Amari Wright G 5’9” SR averages 32.4 min, 4.3 pts, 3 rbds and 6.3 ast. The other two starters have been switching mostly between three players. Kae Satterfield F 6’ SR, 7 games, averages 23.3 min, 8.9 pts, 3.8 rbds, 1.5 t/o’s and 1.1 stl. A’Jah Davis F 6’1” SR, 6 games, averages 15.1 min, 3.9 pts, 3.9 rbd and 1.1 t/o’s. I’yanna Lops F 6’3” SR 6 games, averages 18.7 min, 4 pts, 3.8 rbds, 1.1 blk. The other 7 players have played in at least 3 Conference games, with some playing in all 11 games. In UConn’s 11 Conference games UConn has averaged 88.5 pts while giving up 54.3 while the Pirates is averaging 56.4 pts and giving up 59.2 pts.

- All predictions and any changes must be submitted by 3:45 P.M. Eastern on game day, any submitted after the cut-off will not be accepted.
- The winner must be named, either UConn/Huskies or Seton Hall/Pirates. No predictions like "85-55 the good guys", will not be accepted if there isn't a winner stated.
- If prior to the closing of the Prognosticator’s Predictions, you wish to change your prognostication you must submit a new prediction by stating that you wish to change your previous prediction and provide the post number of the original post. If the request for change is submitted prior to the closing of accepted predictions, you will receive a "like" letting you know that it was accepted and changed.
- If someone believes that they have been missed, or someone notices that another fellow Prognosticator has been missed by the gamekeeper, then it must be brought to the gamekeeper's attention within 24 hours of the posting of the winner(s) game thread.
- I don’t see UConn having any problems with the Red Storm, they will wear them down by the end of the halfr and get another conference win. UConn 89 – Seton Hall 40.
