Villanova football considering a move to the Big East

NCAA Football Betting Lines

09/10/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Villanova is reportedly evaluating the prospect of moving up to the highest level of college football.

The Philadelphia Daily News reports that the reigning Football Championship Subdivision champions are considering a leap to the Football Bowl Subdivision, where they would become football playing members of the Big East.

Villanova has been part of the Big East for all other sports since 1980-81, the second year of the conference's existence. The Wildcats were offered a chance to join as football members in 1997, but declined. Connecticut did accept an invitation to make the jump from what was then known as I-AA.

According to the report, the Big East has not made a formal offer but would readily welcome the Wildcats if they decided to make the move.

The 16-team Big East has just eight football members -- Connecticut, Syracuse, West Virginia, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Cincinnati, Rutgers and South Florida.

Villanova, which plays football in the Colonial Athletic Association, is currently ranked second in The Sportsbook Betting Lines FCS poll. The Wildcats lost their season-opener to Temple, 31-24, on September 3.
