Projected seed: 7

Seton Hall’s résumé rests on a rock-solid defense and a couple of resume-building wins away from its building and on neutral courts, most notably a road victory at Kansas State and a neutral-site triumph over NC State, while a narrow neutral loss to USC and a slate heavy with blowouts over lower-division opponents underscore offensive inconsistency and limit signature depth. The Pirates have proven they can win in hostile environments but still lack a marquee conference win that would quiet doubts, so upcoming tests at Villanova and Creighton plus trips to Connecticut and Marquette represent the clearest opportunities to flip perception. How they score and protect the ball in those moments will determine whether their stout defense can offset a soft nonconference ledger and the damage from that top-tier loss.
