Marquette vs Seton Hall Prediction
The Marquette Golden Eagles are the more trustworthy team with health on their side, and they’re 12-2 SU at home. Marquette beat Seton Hall by 17 points on the road a few weeks ago. With all that said, Marquette has had issues covering these inflated lines and is now 3-7 ATS in its last 10 games. Also, Seton Hall just beat UConn as a 13.5-point underdog, easily its biggest win in recent memory. Was it a fluke? Who knows… It’s still enough to give Seton Hall a look in the big underdog role against a Marquette side that can’t cover numbers. Give me Seton Hall and the points.
