St. John's is coming into this game with a 19-12 record this season and they are 11-9 in the conference. They have been playing very well in their recent games as they finished the regular season with 5 straight wins, but they also played a very weak schedule in that span. They have won their last 5 games but 3 of those wins came against DePaul and Georgetown twice who were both the 2 worst teams in the Big East this season. They do have a win against Creighton in that span, but that win came at home right after Creighton took down UConn in their game prior. There are only 4 teams that finished ahead of St. John's in the regular season and St. John's was 1-7 against those teams this season, their win against Creighton being their only win against a top 4 team in the Big East. They are going up against a Seton Hall team that is 20-11 this season and is 13-7 in the conference, making them one of those top 4 teams that finished ahead of St. John's. They have also been playing very well in their recent games as they have won their last 2 straight as well as 5 of their last 7 games, their only losses in that span coming on the road against UConn and Creighton. Seton Hall has been a quality team all season that finished 4th in the Big East yet they have flown under the radar compared to teams like St. John's and Villanova, but Seton Hall will be hungry to make a statement in this game to prove they are a tournament worthy team. They will also have the confidence here since they did beat St. John's twice this season and they have been playing just as well coming into this game. Seton Hall will cover the spread in this game.
