(12)Memphis (3-0, 0-0 away) VS Seton Hall (3-0, 3-0 home) at Puerto Rico
Seton Hall, which opened last season on a 6-0 run, tries to stay perfect through four games this season when it takes on 13th-ranked Memphis in the semifinals of the Puerto Rico Season Tip-Off in San Juan.
The Pirates rallied from a 15-point halftime deficit to beat No. 19 Southern California 63-61 on Thursday, pulling off the upset as eight-point ‘dogs. Seton Hall stepped up the defense in the second half, limiting the Trojans to just 24.1 percent shooting after allowing them to ht 62.5 percent of their shots in the opening 20 minutes. It was the Pirates’ first win over a Top-25 team since coach Bobby Gonzalez took over two seasons ago (1-10 SU).
Memphis moved into the semifinals with an 83-71 win over Chattanooga on Thursday, but the Tigers came nowhere near covering as 22½-point favorites. Shawn Taggart led the way with a 16-point, 11-rebound performance as the Tigers continue to spread to the wealth with five players already averaging double-digits in points.
The Tigers went 3-0 (2-1 ATS) against Big East teams last season, but they haven’t faced Seton Hall since 1974.
The Pirates are in ATS slumps of 5-8 overall, 5-17 in neutral-site contests, 2-4-1 in non-conference action and 1-6 on Fridays, but they have cashed in five of their last six after a SU win. Memphis is 5-2 ATS in its last seven games overall dating back to last year’s NCAA Tournament run and 5-2 ATS in its last seven non-conference games.
For the Tigers, the over is on runs of 6-3 overall (all in non-conference action), 6-0 against the Big East and 5-2 at neutral sites. Seton Hall has stayed below the total in six straight lined contests overall and four straight in neutral venues, but the Pirates have topped the number in four of six non-conference contests.
