Villanova Basketball has the inside track to the #1 seed

All they (gotta) do is win win win, no matter what!

Happy President's Day, 'Nova Nation! If you're lucky like me, you have today off. To be honest, I'm stunned. We've never had it off before. But I'll take it!

The rankings should be interesting today. Given the split vote last week, I'm inclined to believe that Villanova will hang on to their #1 ranking, but I've seen some chatter that Kansas could leapfrog them. Can't wait for the outrage if that happens!
