The Villanova Wildcats are already 3-0 vs. the Big Five this season with wins over St. Josesphs, Penn and La Salle, and they look to make it a clean sweep vs. the Temple Owls tonight before commencing Big East play later this week.
This game is being played on campus at the Pavillion, where the Wildcats are always tough. In fact, they have now won 22 straight games in this gym, which is obviously much more quaint than the Wachovia Center, where they play the rest of their home games.
Villanova is off to a nice 11-1 start with the lone start coming vs. a nationally ranked Texas team, and they are now 23-4 vs. non-conference opponents since the start of last season while winning those games by an average of +11.6 points. It naturally helps to be playing in what is probably the best conference in the country in the Big East, which has toughened the Wildcats up when they play out of conference.
Temple is just 5-5 so far, and they have been very inconsistent, upsetting the likes of Tennessee and losing to the likes of Long Beach State and Buffalo. It should be noted that the Tennessee game was at home though, and the Owls are just 1-3 in their lined true road games. Things do not figure to improve for them in this environment.
Villanova has won this matchup each of the last three years by an average margin of +16.0 points, and we look for a repeat performance this evening.
