While the Villanova Wildcats were rightly celebrating their Battle 4 Atlantis title, it wasn’t the elite victory fans had been anticipating. Winning is still winning, and there are now less than 30 teams that remain undefeated less than a month into the season. But just because Villanova’s record is unblemished, it hasn’t kept others from questioning how strong that record is. The Cats weren’t even off the court before those questions came out.
I'm guessing that Villanova wasn't banking on wins over Western Kentucky, Northern Iowa and Tennessee in the Battle 4 Atlantis. That's quietly a blow to their non-conference schedule.
