Villanova and Virginia will begin a home-and-home series in December, multiple sources told CBSSports.com. The first game will be at Virginia before moving the series to Philadelphia in 2016-17.

The Cavaliers return three starters from last year's team that went 30-4 and lost to Michigan State in the Round of 32. The 2014-15 lineup will be highlighted by a veteran backcourt of London Perrantes and Malcolm Brogdon.

Tony Bennett's squad is a consensus top-10 team next season and will be a strong contender in the ACC, along with Duke and North Carolina.

Villanova returns five of its top eight scorers from last season's squad that went 33-3 and fell to NC State in the Round of 32. The Wildcats are adding talented freshman Jalen Brunson, who could arguably be the top point guard in the Class of 2015.

This tilt on the road against Virginia adds to an already daunting non-conference slate for Villanova. The Wildcats schedule includes the Preseason NIT, a neutral-site game against Oklahoma in Hawaii, a home game against Nebraska, and Philadelphia Big 5 games against Temple, Saint Joseph's, La Salle and Penn.
