Georgetown having last bested DePaul, while Seton Hall taking down BIG EAST frontrunners Marquette, Providence and UConn in three of their four league games have both team's feeling positive about facing each other, tonight. Hoya HC Ed Cooley alluded as much after his team took down visiting DePaul, noting he and the program were "excited to play one of the hottest teams in the country here on Tuesday with Seton Hall", a tilt "That will be a really old school BIG EAST, junkyard dog, NFL put on the football pads out there, first and 10 on almost every possession. So our players are going to have to get prepared, push them mentally and physically".
Yeah, expect a war.
