How long has it been since Illinois played DePaul? Several years I think.
Good to see an in-state rivalry renewed.

For the sake of any listeners of Chicago sports radio, we must win this game.
I feel very not good about this game. I hope we win but DePaul played a 14th ranked ND pretty tight most of the game. Notre Dame hadn't gone up by 10pts till 8:30 left in the 2nd half.
I don't feel good about any of our games right now. At our current level, we are very beatable. Glad BU teams have a tendency to improve.
If this game is 20mins, I am confident that it is a comfortable W for
But I am really worried about our gas running out again at final 10mins of 2nd half.
Anyone can give a head up on how deep is this Depaul roster?
Looks like they went about 7 deep against ND. 7 guys with 13 minutes or more. Good size. Guards are big
Starting lineup was 6-11, 6-7, 6-6, 6-6, 6-2. Two main guys off the bench, 6-9 and 6-5.
Didn't shoot well from anywhere, overall, threes or FTs.
Only 4 turnovers. Not sure if ND pressured much or not.
They play tonight on FS2.
Rivalry? Just like Northwestern?
I've been expecting us to lay an egg or two. Really hope this isn't one.
I think the week of practice and scouting prep will be big. Plus this is an opponent with some name recognition, which should help with focus.
My prediction: Depaul 84- 76 Illinois. Bet the over; since DePaul with be at least +3-4 underdogs, bet on the moneyline.
Are you the guy who said bet the over on the UT-Martin game?
