Nova at Pitt...Revenge...close game or does Nova win easy??????

This is the write up I came across...you have to realize guys that living in the Philly area I am a huge Villanova fan but as the saying goes you bet with your head and not your heart!!!

When we last saw Villanova, they were getting ambushed at home

by UConn on Big Monday. Things won’t get any easier this afternoon

for Jay Wright’s 3rd-ranked Wildcats as they take to the Big East

highway for a matchup with revenge-minded Pitt. The top-seeded

Panthers were one win away from a trip to last year’s Final Four

before they ran into the Wildcats in the regional fi nals, dropping a

78-76 heartbreaker. There’s more than one way to skin a cat. For starters,

the boys from Philly have dropped their last six SU and their last eight

ATS in this building. Jamie Dixon’s Panthers also prowl with a solid

10-4 ATS mark with tourney revenge, including 5-1 ATS at home.

Despite losing more games this season (6) than they did all of last

year (5), the Panthers have only dropped one game at the Petersen

Events Center. That makes 35 of 36 SU wins at home, including 4-1

ATS with revenge and a perfect 2-0 ATS should they enter as a dog –

of which, by they way, they are 27-13-1 ATS as conference pups since

2004. Nova was just dogged by the Huskies less than a week ago

and their 3-7 ATS mark after those confrontations has us backing the

hosts in this Big East brawl. Sweet revenge!

Pitt wins game outright!!!!!!
