This weekend the Villanova Wildcats travel South to face the Richmond Spiders in a mid-season CAA clash that has title implications. The ‘Cats are undefeated and riding high after a couple of blowouts over Elon and Rhode Island, while the Spiders are 2-1 in the conference but ranked in the FCS Top 10.
The Spiders were picked to win the conference this season, and opened some eyes by beating FBS Virginia on the road to open the season. Two weeks later they were destroyed by Stony Brook, and have since snuck by Colgate, Towson and Albany. They’re playing well, but not as well as they are capable of.
