Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions vs. Depaul Blue Demons Prediction

I’m on Depaul in this one. Depaul is a team I’m looking to fade in conference play as Big East play is where this team has had a tendency to struggle over the years. Until then, Depaul usually does a good job of beating up on bad teams and I think this is another spot where that comes to fruition. Give me Depaul in this one.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Depaul -23.5
