Two games into the 2018-2019 season the Penn State Nittany Lion basketball team is exactly where they should be: 2-0. The Nittany Lions have opened the season with home victories over North Florida and Ohio Valley Conference preseason favorite Jacksonville State. However, the first road test of the season is next.
Tonight, Pat Chambers and company will travel to Chicago to do battle with the DePaul Blue Demons. The Blue Demons enter the game with a 2-0 record as they look to crawl out of the basement of the Big East this season. While the Blue Demons are an improved team, the Nittany Lions, on paper at least, appear to be the better team.
