Play On: Villanova +4.0

Villanova is coming off a narrow 1-point win yesterday over a 3-29 DePaul team that entered that matchup on a 19-game losing streak. That was a contest in which the Wildcats closed as a massive 24.5-point favorite. It’s been a frustrating season for Villanova fans who have witnessed their team going just 18-14 thus far. Yet, here they are as just a short underdog versus #10 ranked Marquette (23-8) who they’ve already lost to twice this season. They’re begging us to lay the small number on a nationally ranked team versus a seemingly average opponent at best. However, I’m going contrarian here and not taking the bait. Give me Villanova plus points.
