Seton Hall vs Alabama College Basketball Preview
Seton Hall Basketball
Seton Hall is at the bottom of the Big East. The Pirates were picked to finish ninth out of 11 teams, but like last season when they were picked last, they could exceed expectations again. They ended last season in fourth.
Shaheen Holloway is in his fifth season and leads a roster with 13 newcomers via the portal or as incoming freshmen.
Holloway has built his foundation on defensive-minded playmakers, and this season is no different. With a heavy transfer portal approach, it makes sense. Defense usually excels when the offense lacks, thanks to continuity.
Projections put this team at 16-18 wins, but Holloway thrives on being underappreciated, and so do his players.
Alabama Basketball
Alabama has been steady under Nate Oats — high-octane, high-tempo and shooting the ball within the first 15 seconds. The Tide have done that every season Oats has been the head coach.
Alabama brings in a nice mix of returning talent and portal grabs. They landed Brandon Garrison from Kentucky, Drew Fielder from Boise State, and London Jemison from St. Thomas More (NBA talent production portal). All three grabs add a lot of size.
That size helps them continue their high-octane production, with the ability to grab rebounds and hit the passing lanes early.
First impressions are that this team is a bit undervalued early in the season. Expectations and hype are more on Texas, Florida, Arkansas, and even Tennessee. Alabama might win this conference if they play to their potential.
Seton Hall vs Alabama Pick, Betting Analysis
This is a contrast of styles, as we have grown accustomed to seeing Alabama play fast-paced, chaotic games under Oats. The Tide enter ranked second in adjusted tempo, a far cry from Seton Hall, which comes in ranked 310th in the category.
Over the last couple of seasons, we have seen Alabama’s unique ability to dictate the pace. And if they play fast, their opponents typically follow suit and up their tempo.
Seton Hall has scored no more than 66 points in any of its three games, but it faces an Alabama team that has allowed at least 74 points in two of its three games. Alabama also loves the three-pointer, ranking second in three-point attempts per game.
Pick: Over 156.5 (Play to 160)
