The Villanova Wildcats had practice both Sunday and Monday in an attempt to fix what went wrong against Virginia ahead of tonight's visit from the Delaware Blue Hens. In what amounted to a shootout, Villanova's defense betrayed them all game long, and especially at crucial moments late. Add in the fact that they were dominated on the glass again and Jay Wright has some work to do to get his team to play his brand of basketball.
At 5-4, Delaware shouldn't pose much of a threat. With a visit from Penn on the docket next Monday before the big New Year's Eve showdown with Xavier, Villanova will have a couple of games to get things right as they prepare to mount their Big East title defense.
