UConn travels to Villanova to play at the Finneran Pavilion, built in 1985 and holds 6,501. Nova has averaged 1,924 fans over the past 4 conference games. I expect a few more fans than what they have averaged so far this season. The Wildcats are rated 58th by Massey with a SoS of 61st. Their best win is against Marquette who is rated 32nd and their worst loss is against Providence who is rated #124. Their Conference wins at home are Xavier 86-45, Georgetown 53-51OT, Marquette 66-63 and on the road are against Seton Hall 50-45, Butler 65-54 and DePaul 95-64. Their losses are at home against Creighton 49-63 and away are against St. John’s 46-51 and Providence 76-82OT. UConn’s current starting lineup has played against every team except for Xavier and UConn has won every game with a MOV that has been between 24 and 44 points. They average in Conference play 61.4 points a game while allowing 56.8 points, 35 rebounds, 13.75 assists, 9 steals, 5.8 blocks, 10.38 turnovers, 37.1 FG%, 74.7 FT%, 28.2 3pt% and commit 13.75 fouls. UConn averages 88.1 points per game while allowing 54.4 points, 43.6 rebounds, 22.7 assists, 10.3 steals, 2.6 blocks, 11.2 turnovers, 53.6 FG%, 78.6 FT%, 36.3 3PT% and commit 16 fouls. Offensively they are ranked 68th while defensively they are ranked 28th vs UConn being ranked 4th in both offense and defense.
Villanova is 6-3 in Conference play three games behind UConn in the standings. The Wildcats have played 7 main players so far in their 8 Conference games excluding Sunday’s game at DePaul. Their starters for all of the 8 Conference games were Lucy Olson G 5’9” JR who averages 37.8 min, 22.1 pts, 6.4 rbds, 4.1 ast, 2.25 stl and 2.3 t/o. Christina Dalce F 6’2” JR averages 27.9 min, 6.5 pts, 9.5 rbd, .75 ast, 2 t/o, 2.75 blk and 1.3 stl. Bella Runyan G 5’11” SR averages 35 min, 8.5 pts, 4.4 rbds, 2.8 ast, 1.5 t/o and 2.25 stl. Zanai Jones G 5’6” JR averages 23 min, 6 pts, 1.8 rbd, 1.25 ast and 1.12 stl. Maddie Burke G 6’ SR averages 17.7 min, 1pt, 1.9 rbd, 2.8 t/o and 0.8 ast.

- All predictions and any changes must be submitted by 6:15 P.M. Eastern on game day, any submitted after the cut-off will not be accepted.
- The winner must be named, either UConn/Huskies or Nova/Wildcats. No predictions like "85-55 the good guys", will be accepted if there isn't a winner stated.
- If prior to the closing of the Prognosticator’s Predictions, you wish to change your prognostication you must submit a new prediction by stating that you wish to change your previous prediction and provide the post number of the original post. If the request for change is submitted prior to the closing of accepted predictions, you will receive a "like" letting you know that it was accepted and changed.
- If someone believes that they have been missed, or someone notices that another fellow Prognosticator has been missed by the gamekeeper, then it must be brought to the gamekeeper's attention within 24 hours of the posting of the winner(s) game thread.
- UConn shakes off the loss against the Irish and comes out fast and furious. Without Siegrest Nova doesn't have firepower to stay with the Huskies. UConn 95 – Nova 65.
