On Wednesday, it was reported by Jon Rothstein that two old Big East rivals would be meeting in 2018. On Thursday, the UConn Huskies and Villanova Wildcats officially announced a restart of their rivalry in the form of a three-game series that’s set to take place over the course of the next three seasons.

The releases from the program indicate that the series will be 1-1-1 as far as locations go, going home-neutral-home between the two programs.
