Despite playing well to open up Big East play, the DePaul Blue Demons without wins after their first two efforts. They gave Villanova a scare last week, taking the lead and pushing the Wildcats till the final buzzer but fell short. Then in their home opener, they blitzed the St. John’s Red Storm in the first half but fell victim to a quiet second half where they allowed the Johnnies to catch fire from deep. A loss could put the Blue Demons at the bottom of the standings, moving them under the 0-3 Georgetown Hoyas.
To say it is a must win is kind of an understatement.
