Trends
Seton Hall is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Tuesday games. The under is 5-2 in Seton Hall’s last 7 road games. Colorado is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games and 2-6 ATS in their last 8 Tuesday games. The over is 4-0 in Colorado’s last 4 Tuesday games.
Pick
Seton Hall has really struggled over the last month and they lost to lowly DePaul in the Big East Tournament. Colorado did get two nice wins over Washington and Utah in their last two regular season games and played UCLA decently tough in their last two losses. These two teams are pretty evenly matched, but I like Colorado in this game, as they have been the slightly better team lately.
David’s Pick Colorado -3.5
