Sacred Heart @ Seton Hall (-20.5), St. Francis NY @ St. John’s (-19.5)

The Pick: Seton Hall -15.5 paired with St. John’s -14.5

Yesterday, we went a pair of heavy underdogs and that flamed out spectacularly, so today we’re opting for two Big East stalwarts to pound visiting cannon fodder. There’s no way either Sacred Heart or St. Francis NY should be able to hang with the Hall (7-3) or the Red Storm (a surprising 10-0), but I always fear complacency or boredom. (Yeah, that’s what I feared yesterday and Duke beat Princeton by so many points it could have been a math SAT question.) So taking my +5s and giving them to the big favorites makes me feel like the Pirates and the Johnnies just have to give a B effort to cover.
