What to Know
The Northeastern Huskies are on the road again on Wednesday and play against the Seton Hall Pirates at 6:30 p.m. ET on November 29th at Prudential Center. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Last Saturday, the Huskies couldn't handle the Tigers and fell 80-66.
Meanwhile, the point spread may have favored Seton Hall last Friday, but the final result did not. They fell 85-72 to the Hawkeyes. Seton Hall has now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Despite their defeat, Seton Hall saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Dre Davis, who scored 18 points along with 7 rebounds, was perhaps the best of all. Jaden Bediako was another key contributor, dropping a double-double on 11 points and 11 rebounds.
Even though they lost, Seton Hall were smashing the offensive glass and finished the game with 16 offensive rebounds. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Iowa only pulled down three.
Their wins bumped the Huskies to 3-4 and the Tigers to 6-0.
Northeastern is hoping to beat the odds on Wednesday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss.
This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: Northeastern have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 33.4 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Seton Hall struggles in that department as they've been even better at 40.2 per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
