I'm thinking although the game setup is different this game was essentially like a 16 seed beating a 1 seed.
Hard to believe Nova stays on the 1 seed line after this result.
Thoughts?

Seton Hall is significantly better than your typical #16 seed. Big upset, but not THAT big.

I guess I'm not sure on that, but not sure how to look up the numbers. Do most #16 seeds have worse RPI's than Seton Hall's?

They most certainly typically have a much, MUCH worse Sagarin Predictor rating than Seton Hall. The Hall is #86. And that's a whole lot better way to judge a team than RPI.

Seton Hall is miles ahead of any 16 seed ever.
