From what I saw that was more about Seton Hall than NC State. They were just quicker to the ball all over the court on defense and offense. Budd Clark is crazy quick and there was impressive speed all over the court for them.
Yeah Seton Hall doesn't look bad. Looking at this game, I miss being in Maui last year even though UConn was the biggest loser there.
It always works out like that. Even when people on the BoneYard suggest a certain Big East team(s) will be bad based on early OOC games, I don't make too many comments because teams get better as the year goes along and that is even more true with the bigger roster turnover in the transfer portal era.
Yup, both Freeman and Josh Dix are not good defenders.
No, Creighton is definitely not a lock anymore like I thought but they're firmly on the bubble and I still think they'll get in. And Seton Hall is nowhere near a tournament team, even if they're much improved and will give teams a tough game
It's how they looked out of conference last season too. It's sucks for us and the conference because you know they will look awesome during the Big East season once again.
SjU doesn't seem like a good defensive team leaving perimeter shooters. They are also turning it over on offense. Down 59 to 53 now.
Then underperformed outside the conference in the NCAA tournament.
Most talented offensive player on the floor, has good size and is mobile.
What made them so dominant in conference last season was they had an identity. And they leaned all the way into it. Their roster was also perfectly designed for it.
