No betting line has been posted for this game yet. Sportsbooks post lines for many women's college games only on game day, and smaller-conference games often get none at all. Books also take a line down for a while when a key player's status is unclear. We check ESPN's lines before each day's games and add the line as soon as there is one.

Not a promise: a 71% pick still loses about 3 times in 10.

Advantages Why Seton Hall can win

  1. Net rating (points per 100 possessions): Seton Hall 125th (+4.7), Mercyhurst 297th (-13.6) of 364.
  2. Seton Hall's offense (95.1 points per 100 possessions, 132nd in Division I) meets a Mercyhurst defense that ranks 356th.
  3. Home court: Seton Hall play at home, worth about 3.5 points in women's college basketball.
  4. Point differential per game: Seton Hall 124th (+3.3), Mercyhurst 296th (-9.4) of 364.
  5. Team matchup: where Seton Hall can take advantage. Their shooting efficiency (145th of 364) meets the Mercyhurst shooting defense (362nd), so look for them to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up. And their offensive rebounding (134th of 364) meets the Mercyhurst defensive rebounding (351st): a chance to crash the glass for second chances.
  6. Star matchup: Best player against best player, Savannah Catalon (Seton Hall: 13.1 pts, 4.6 reb, 2.2 ast, Game Score 11.5) has the edge on Jenna Van Schaik (Mercyhurst: 13.9 pts, 3.1 reb, 3.4 ast, Game Score 10.0).
  7. Simulation: Seton Hall win 3,570 of 5,000 simulated games.

Disadvantages Why Seton Hall may not

  1. Range of outcomes: in the worst 10% of simulations Seton Hall lose by 10 or more.
  2. Weak spot: Seton Hall rank 281st of 364 in shooting allowed (opponent eFG%) (47.8%).
  3. Shooting variance: one hot or cold night from three swings college games by 10 points or more.
  4. Who plays: women's college basketball has no league-wide injury report, so a late absence can arrive at tip-off.
  5. Team matchup: where Mercyhurst can push back. Their shooting efficiency (130th of 364) meets the Seton Hall shooting defense (281st), so look for them to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
  6. Star matchup: the key positions lean Seton Hall on paper, but Jenna Van Schaik (13.9 pts, 3.1 reb, 3.4 ast, Game Score 10.0) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
  7. Upset odds: Mercyhurst win 1,430 of 5,000 simulations (29%). A 71% pick still loses about 3 times in 10.
