Marquette Takes On Much-Improved DePaul

The Marquette Golden Eagles go for their sixth Big East Conference victory in a row when an improving DePaul team visits.  The two teams split home-and-home games last season.  DePaul brings an 11-6 record into the game, 3-3 in conference play.  The Blue Demons beat Seton Hall 97-93 last Saturday.  Max Strus leads the team in scoring with 18 points-a-game.  The visitors are strong inside but have been less effective on three-point shots and suspect on defense.
