Seton Hall vs. Depaul Prediction
I’m on Seton Hall here. There’s just so much wrong with Depaul right now that it’s virtually impossible to get behind them at this point. It’s unfortunate that this is the norm for Depaul basketball, continuously being dismantled in Big East play, but as long as it continues to happen, I’m going to keep fading Depaul. Seton Hall’s the better team across the board and even on the road, I don’t envision Depaul being a threat here. Give me the Pirates.
