No. 1 KU, No. 18 Villanova set to renew rivalry in Philly
(AP Photo/Orlin Wagner)PHILADELPHIA, PA โ The Kansas vs. Villanova rivalry has become glorious to view for college hoops fans. 18 Villanova (8-2) at the Wells Fargo Center, the home of the 76ers and their All-Star big man and former Jayhawk Joel Embiid. Embiid scored 10 points against the Wildcats in his only game of the series, unranked Villanova's 63-59 win over No. "That's always been the beauty of the Kansas games," Villanova coach Jay Wright said. Again, Villanova used the Kansas game as a sort of measuring stick for the program.
