Villanova heads South to face the Elon Phoenix on Saturday afternoon in what will be the first meeting between the CAA foe, ever. Elon are still in the early days of their CAA membership, and this is the first season since they joined that they’ll face ‘Nova.
Villanova is 3-1 after a dominant defensive showing at Lafayette last weekend, and will look to build on their 1-0 conference record.
The Phoenix enter the game at 2-2, and didn’t look like they were going to be much of a threat in the first few weeks. That all changed last weekend when they went on the road and crushed #8 William & Mary 27-10.
