Depaul Blue Demons vs. Wichita State Shockers Prediction

I’m on the Shockers here. I think this is just a bad spot for Depaul, with Wichita State at home and in a revenge spot after they got blown out by Depaul last season. The Shockers are still a quality team and usually have a solid home court edge and I think they get it done here with the win and cover. Give me the Shockers here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Wichita State -6.5
