Line: Villanova -TBD

Villanova follows up its biggest win of the season on Wednesday with a home game against the Cincinnati Bearcats.

Cincinnati is 13-7, fresh off a victory over Georgetown. Prior to that upset, the Bearcats' best win was an early December victory over UAB.

While the Bearcats can put points on the board, Villanova should be the heavy favorite, especially at the Pavilion. Kenpom gives the Wildcats an 87 percent chance to win, predicting an 11-point margin.

At 12:06 PM, February 04, 2009, Anonymous said...: The interesting thing about Fisher's progression this year (keeping in mind that he HAS been playing a lot, just not as much as HOF coach Pete thinks he should) seems to me to be a vindication of Wright's handling of him, rather than the reverse.
