USC vs Seton Hall Prediction

I’m on the Pirates and the points in this game. I just think that Seton Hall has passed my eye test to this point. While I was unsure of how they’d do against NC State, the Pirates put those doubts to rest by dominating a solid Wolfpack team for 40 minutes. USC needed a lot to edge out Boise State and on a quick turnaround, I think Seton Hall is live in this game. Give me the Pirates and the points.
