DePaul (+13½) over Villanova
7:30 PM (EST) -- Allstate Arena
Perfect Play---DePaul Oh what pressure to have to go on the road before having a chance to play at home and be announced as the best in the country. Villanova is No. 1 in the AP Top 25 for the first time in school history and now travels to play on the road. They have no idea how to handle this role. For Nova, Daniel Ochefu has been cleared to play but it''s uncertain. And he''s been out for four straight games so his contribution is suspect. DePaul has already defeated two ranked teams and this is certainly the one they want for their season resume. Myke Henry and Billy Garrett have have some of their best games against ranked opponents. Look for them to rise to the occasion and play great. DePaul tends to play to the level of the competition and the team and their fans will be sky high facing a Number 1 team. Not predicting an outright win but the Wildcats may be another #1 team that goes down with the jinx of that first time ranking
