This game used to be a big deal, but the Quakers who along with Princeton, ruled the Ivy League for years, have fallen off dramatically, while the Wildcats have one of their best teams ever. How far has Penn fallen? They were 6-8 in the Ivy a year ago, and that was the first time since 1990 they had a losing record in the conference, and the prospects for improvement this season aren't there. Nova used to have their hands full vs. Penn as they dropped a pair of games in consecutive seasons, and went a six-year stretch of never beating the Quakers by more than 10. All of that has changed now as the Wildcats are at the pinnacle of their program’s success and the Quakers have fallen to a new all time low. The result has been wins of 22 and 26 for the Wildcats in the last two years, and this one could approach or exceed 30. I'll go with Villanova here.
