DePaul’s 2026-27 hoops season kicks off with a Big East showdown at Madison Square Garden, then wraps up at home against Marquette. Before conference play, they face elite non-conference foes including Purdue (Elite Eight last year), Pitt (Jeff Capel’s ninth season), SMU (NCAA First Four), and South Florida (25-win NCAA team). Road trips to Northwestern and St. Louis add more firepower, while Fort Myers hosts two neutral-site games. Four opponents come from Power Four conferences — two ACC, two Big Ten. With a stacked slate and high-stakes matchups, the Blue Demons are primed for a battle-tested campaign.
