CHICAGO – Xavier kicks off the battle for the Big East Conference Saturday (2 p.m., FS1) with a trip to DePaul's Wintrust Arena.

Xavier (8-5), coming off a Big East regular-season championship last season, is still searching for its first true road win of the season after coming up shorthanded at Cincinnati and at Missouri.

There are a number of interesting storylines heading into this Big East opener.

Most importantly for Xavier is the health of two of its best players.
