This North Texas squad has been torturing me, beginning with the C-USA tournament as it won all four games to capture the title after losing its last three regular-season contests. The Mean Green then beat Purdue on Friday with a strong performance throughout, leading most of the way. But I'm not wavering. Villanova lost its first two without Connor Gillespie, but in the second half of its first-round game, it grew as a team with Justin Moore handling the ball and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl taking charge to get the win. Take the Wildcats to cover.
