StatSheet now projects Villanova to go to the NIT as a seven seed, provided they maintain a winning record. The Wildcats are sitting at #108 in the StatSheet StatRank, and making the NIT will be decided by their 10-10 overall record and 3-5 record in the Big East.
During its last four games, Villanova picked up a quality win against RPI #7 Seton Hall and a win against St. John's but also struggled with losses to RPI #89 Cincinnati and AP #3 Syracuse.
Villanova is not that good against top competition, with a 2-9 record against the RPI Top 100 that includes a 1-5 record against the RPI Top 50 and an 0-3 record against AP ranked teams. While the Wildcats have a single quality win against RPI #7 Seton Hall, they're also hampered by a bad loss to RPI #228 Santa Clara.
