Wichita State is certainly a must win for Seton Hall, but not really any more so than their other 3 remaining OOC games. At the start of the season, the Wichita State game was supposed to be an opportunity for a good win- now it's about avoiding a bad loss. Seton Hall missed their only 2 opportunities for meaningful non-conference wins, so to have any realistic tournament hope, it's imperative that they avoid any bad losses and finish this portion of their schedule at 10-2.

1. I know Nova is going to be top-10 pretty much all year
2. I know Xavier is a lead-pipe lock for the NCAAs and probably a protected seed
3. I know Butler is nearly a lead pipe lock for the tournament and will do damage there with their veteran leadership
4. I know PC probably lays an egg or two due to depth/inexperience but still makes the dance comfortably and with an AA point guard can beat anyone once in the tournament
5. I know GTown will take their tough non-conference SOS and use it as a barometer for Big East play to parlay it into an NCAA bid; whether they actually realize their potential in March is TBD
6. I know Seton Hall has NCAA tournament ability, but do they have NCAA chemistry and coaching?
7. I know Creighton and Marquette will be brutal outs at home but probably roll over on the road most nights
8. I know DePaul will scrap more this year, but still lose 12+ games
9. I know St. John's will be lucky to win 3 conference games
