The St. Louis Billikens are expecting great things to happen this season. They have not disappointed at 4-0 to start the season, but will be served their biggest challenge yet from the Villanova Wildcats who have duplicated their 4-0 start. I find it difficult to believe that on a neutral floor the Billikens are better than Nova. The Wildcats are under the radar because they have had three players really step up their game to a high level. Maalik Wayns heads that list going from 13.8 points per game a year ago to over 20 points this year, while Dominic Cheek has gone from 5.6 to 17. Add in Mouphataou Yarou going from 8.4 to 16 ppg and there is a new trio of stars on the rise at Villanova. The Billikens are a not-so impressive 6-15 ATS in their last 21 vs. a winning team and will be in for a game here, so I'm backing Villanova.
