The Blue Demons are 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 Saturday games and are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. They are also 1-5 ATS in their last 6 road games. The Blue Demons aren’t the same team without Freeman-Liberty in the lineup. I can’t back DePaul until they get Freeman back as he is a big chunk of their offense. Although the Musketeers are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games overall, they should be able to pick up the cover at home against a free falling DePaul team.
