The DePaul Blue Demons begin their 2018-19 campaign on Wednesday night in Chicago. The Blue Demons will play host to the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats of the MEAC at Wintrust Arena, as they look to get off to a fast start.
Despite their overall lack of success, DePaul has fared well in openers in recent memory. Although they lost last year to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, that was their first loss in an opener since 2007. So they will look to do so against Bethune-Cookman, and it should be a feasible task for them.
