DePaul vs St. John’s Prediction
St. John’s is the more talented team and being at home doesn’t hurt, but the Jonnies are just 5-4 ATS and have failed to cover 3 straight games overall. St. John’s can go through offensive droughts at times, and it’s led to some closer than expected results. DePaul can score the ball and has quietly won 6 of its last 7 games, which includes a recent upset over Wichita State. DePaul has scoring depth and if those shots fall, the Red Storm could be in for a battle. It’s also a look ahead spot for St. John’s with Kentucky on deck. This line feels disrespectful toward DePaul. Give me the free buckets.
