Ohio State vs. Seton Hall Prediction and Odds: Pirates Are the Right Side

Seton Hall scored one of the biggest early season wins at Michigan last week, and now will face another Big Ten foe in Ohio State on a neutral floor in Fort Myers, Florida.

The Buckeyes lost a tough road game to Xavier last week, and haven't played since, can the team get back in the win column against a veteran Seton Hall club?

Here are the odds from WynnBET Sportsbook.

Ohio State vs. Seton Hall Prediction and Pick

These two ball clubs have gotten off to different starts this season. Seton Hall went on the road and beat a top five team in the country, while Ohio State traveled in-state and struggled to keep up with Xavier.

The Buckeyes issues stem from their lack of continuity. The team returned less than 50% of their minutes from last season, per KenPom, and are still trying to figure out their best lineups. One thing is for certain, though, the team is going to run through 6'7" big man E.J. Liddell.

Liddell has a top 20 usage rate in the country, over 34% so far, and is off of a 17-point, eight-block performance against Xavier. However, Seton Hall has the size down low and depth to check Liddell with the likes of Alexis Yetna and Tyrese Samuel.

The Pirates have length all over which also can run a sharp shooting Ohio State team, who is shooting over 38% from deep this season, off the 3-point line. While they won't allow opponents to hit on 13% of 3-point shots all year, SHU allows a bottom third 3-point rate. Even with negative regression, the Pirates defense is built to slow down the Buckeyes.

Ultimately, I think Seton Hall is the better team right now given the fact that the team is integrating in some new ball handlers like Penn State transfer Jamari Wheleer and freshman Malaki Branham. I'll play this up to -2.

PICK: Seton Hall ML -125,
