TheUltimate721	17	People will dismiss it because it's an FCS win but Villanova was a great FCS squad last year. This is nothing to scoff at/

jis024	25	My wildcard 25 pick this week is Louisville. A very close game against top-10 Ole Miss and a statement win against Villanova. This team is firing on the offense and will be scary in the ACC.
