HOW SETON HALL PLAYS AGAINST SYRACUSE WEDNESDAY AT THE CARRIER DOME[/COLOR][/B] [B][COLOR=#000080]Give Kevin Willard a ton of credit. The Seton Hall coach has led the Pirates to a pleasantly surprising 11-1 start thanks to a surging Herb Pope, a composed Jordan Theodore, and a flourishing Fuquan Edwin — now here comes the hard part. While the Pirates passed a road test last week against Dayton, playing against Syracuse in the Carrier Dome is an entirely different beast. The number one ranked Orange look like the deepest team in America and have the pieces on the front line to use multiple big men against Pope. Beating Jim Boeheim’s team on the road may be an unrealistic expectation for Seton Hall, but a competitive game in a hostile environment will tell if whether or not this team can really push for a bid to the NCAA Tournament.[/COLOR][/B] [URL='http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2011/12/26/rothstein-monday-morning-college-hoops-notebook/'][B][COLOR=#000080][U]CBS[/U][/COLOR][/B][/URL] [B][SIZE=6][COLOR=#000080]Next Opponent[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [URL='http://www.shupirates.com/HomePage.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=12600&SPLASH_COOKIE_TIME=99999999999&SPLASH_SET=YES'][B][COLOR=#000080][U]Seton Hall Site[/U][/COLOR][/B][/URL] [B][SIZE=6][COLOR=#000080]Recruiting[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [B][COLOR=#000080]1. Lincoln (7-0) (Last week: 1) [/COLOR][/B] [B][COLOR=#000080]We’ve been lobbying for Lincoln to get nationally ranked. They have the star (Isaiah Whitehead), impact forwards (Tafari Whittingham and Travis Charles) and guard play (Ethan Telfair, Da’Shawn Suber, Shaquille Davis and Ian Vasquez) to play with anyone in the country.
