KenPom Prediction: Villanova has a 96% chance of victory, with a predicted score of 79-61.

Tempo Free Fun: This is a battle of the most efficient offense in the Big East against the least efficient offense in the Big East. Villanova is scoring over 115 points per 100 possessions in league action, while Marquette is managing just slightly more than 92 points per 100 possessions. This wouldn't be that big of an issue for your Golden Eagles, except that Villanova is also the most efficient defense in the league, too.
