The big day is finally here! The Villanova Wildcats begin their quest to repeat as National Champions in Buffalo where they’ll take on the Mount St. Mary’s Mountaineers in primetime with Uncle Verne on the call!
The Mount won a play-in game in the First Four to earn the right to play the reigning champs, but they’ll be heavy underdogs. No 16-seed has ever upset a 1-seed, and this probably won’t be the first time it happens.
The Mount are a dangerous bunch though. They won the double in the NEC this year and Elijah Long, Junior Robinson and Miles Wilson are quality players.
