Viewing Guide: How to watch Villanova Basketball vs. DePaul

An easy start to what looks like a tough conference slate.

NCAA Basketball: DePaul at Villanova Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports

Big East basketball is here, and your Villanova Wildcats are #1 in pretty much every ranking that matters. And they’ve won three straight conference regular season titles. Which means that in a suddenly loaded conference, they’ll have that proverbial target on their back all season.

First up is the DePaul Blue Demons, the tried and true doormat of the league. They’re 7-6 after a weak non-conference schedule, which puts them in RPI killer territory.

Billy Garrett Jr. is a player, as is Eli Cain. And Peter Ryckbosch can be a pain in the ass in the post. That’s my 10-second scouting report. Villanova shouldn’t have much of an issue, but there’s lookahead potential with trips to Creighton and Butler looming.

Game Time, TV Schedule: 6:30pm ET. The game will be televised on FS1.

Live Video Stream: FoxSports GO will have a live stream of the game.

I’ll be in Northern PA at my in-law’s friends house, so I have no idea what they’ll have available to conjur this up. Fingers crossed for something good!
