Villanova's men's basketball team secured a convincing 100-56 victory over DePaul on Saturday, showcasing their offensive firepower and improving defensive performance.

He was saying this Saturday after the Wildcats improved to 10-5 overall, 3-1 in the Big East with their lopsided win over DePaul . It was about as perfect a victory as Villanova could have hoped for with what’s ahead on the schedule. The Wildcats started the first four minutes of the game on a 13-0 run, meaning that over 10 minutes of play vs. Butler and DePaul, Villanova had outscored its opponent, 35-1. DePaul never got closer than 13 again, and Villanova rolled.
“We went a while where we were flying around,” Neptune said. “I thought we followed the game plan to a T — really impressed and proud of the way we defended.”Villanova had 10 days off after allowing Creighton too many easy points in an 86-79 loss in Omaha on Dec. 21. In the two outings that followed that one, the Wildcats have allowed an average of 60.5 points. No, Butler and DePaul aren’t Creighton, and they surely aren’t Wednesday’s opponent, two-time defending national champion Connecticut.
