Too bad the Big East won't have the Johnnies to help carry us this year .

For the past 6 years I've been waiting for DePaul to win games like tonight. It's away vs a top 50 KenPom team, so would be really tough obviously. They'll play 5 Football 5 teams this year and should be able to win at least a couple of them.

Well, the Johnnies wins were against Rutgers twice and Nebraska. None of them participating this year. Should be noted the Big East has never "won" this event. We tied every year except last year when the Big Ten won 5-3.

I feel like this is the year where the Big East finally wins the overall battle.....

Yeah I was just joking given our level of competition, but still a bit surprising.

I'd be happy with a tie for this year. This series will always be tough, hence why we haven't won it yet.
