Let's go Hall

Who cares

Other then our game against them - I got no issue with them winning

In fact - it ONLY helps RU if they win

So… go hall!
 
I can get with SHU this year. Tough defensive team, no-BS coach, could help our resume. I'll flip flop on this if they get too good, but that probably won't happen

I have said this for decades…. Hall fans care FAAAR more about Rutgers then Rutgers fans care about SHU

Was the case when we were both in the big east

Inexplicably was the case for the numerous years when SHU was the far better program

And is still the case

This is just fact
Eh I don't think that's really true. It's always a bigger game for the worse team. That was to our benefit in 2017 and their benefit this year.
 
Seton Hall is a nice little school, but outside of North Jersey, and but for an occasionally decent hoops team, is largely irrelevant otherwise. OF COURSE shu is more obsessed with RU.

I still care a lot about beating SHU. I want to put them in their place

Sorry disagree.

On telling example - there has historically been far more conversation about Rutgers on their board (throughout the season) than there is on ours about SHU. Noticeably more. Regardless of which team is better. On the Rutgers board there is very rarely any discussion (outside game week/ immediate aftermath) about SHU. Just fact. Admittedly, however, their ru obsession seems to lessen every year and is a fraction of what it used to be
 
From the one and only game I'll watch them play all season (well, unless they make the NCAAs maybe) they remind me of a Pike team. Bad offense, solid defense. I think they probably can make it into quad 2.

If you want to see real obsession, go to the Syracuse rivals board

That was not a good team that beat us.
Seton hall isn’t good it was a bad loss for us but good bounce back today.
My overview
While losing the games we did hurts as a fan there are a ton of games to go

If we play like we did against Indiana, Ohio state and wake, we win enough games to make the tourney without festering about what these other teams do after playing us
I hope some day, maybe this year even, you win enough to finish in the top 20
and not have to look back or sideways

There are a lot of teams that don’t sweat this and I hope we can be one soon

….and their 400+ page, decades long thread about RU?

I am aware

Never seen it or been to their board though (at least that I can remember)

The thread is legendary. but we are mentioned and ridiculed on many other threads, particularly when it comes to recruit rankings and NJ players who commit to them
Funny thing is, they think any RU fan that visits their board is obsessed with the SU program, even if it is a brief comment
 
Unfortunately SHU sucks and we beat ourselves but it will be a faint memory if we get to Ncaas
 
Temple lost their last game to Ole Miss … actually their last two.

SHU just loss.

OSU just loss.

Need these teams to win.

On the bright side, Miami doing really well.
 
I actually have no ill will towards this SHU team. Really like Holloway and the team plays the game the right way.

The fans on the other hand, yikes.
