Seton Hall Pirates (4-6, 13-9) at DePaul Blue Demons (0-11, 8-16)

Tuesday, Feb. 10โ€”9:00 PM EST

Preview

The Blue Demons (0-11, 8-16) are still looking for their first Big East win and hope to find it when they host Seton Hall (4-6, 13-9) on Tuesday.

DePaul's chances of finding a Big East win are dwindling. Seton Hall is currently 10th in the Big East, and they only have two other opponents who are beneath themโ€”St. John's at the end of February (currently 14th) and Georgetown to end their season (currently 11th). Their lack of success hasn't come from a lack of any talent, but rather a lack of depth. The top three Blue Demons average 45 of the team's average 65 points.

Seton Hall's Big East season started off exactly the same as the Blue Demons'โ€”they lost their first six games, and it didn't look like they were going to stand a chance of being in the top half of the Big East. But they have since won four gamesโ€”at home against Georgetown, Rutgers, and St. John's, and on the road at Rutgers. The Pirates are looking to string together a five-game win streak before hosting UConn on Saturday.
