Villanova Football vs. Albany Preview: 3 Things To Know

It’s homecoming weekend Nova Nation! Many alumni and their families will be returning to campus to reconnect with old classmates, tailgate around the campus, and attend the morning’s basketball scrimmage the annual homecoming football game. This year’s opponent is the #23 ranked Albany Great Danes who come into the weekend at 4-2.

Albany was projected to finish 11th in the conference, but a strong start vaulted them in the rankings. Unfortunately, back to back losses in the past two weeks to Richmond and Maine have dropped them to just 1-2 in CAA play. A win against ranked Villanova would be a huge step back in the right direction, but that’s easier said than done.
