..............................................................Can Villanova overcome its size disadvantage?
On paper, the Wildcats don't match up with the Tar Heels in the frontcourt. UNC has 6-foot-9 Tyler Hansbrough, 6-foot-8 Deon Thompson, 6-foot-10 Ed Davis and 7-foot Tyler Zeller as part of its rotation. Villanova often has 6-foot-8 Dante Cunningham as its only interior presence. So what the 'Cats must do is battle on the boards, play aggressive perimeter defense and, above all, make 3-pointers. What they should avoid is turning the game into a track meet, which is exactly what the Tar Heels want.

Any team that has to make a shitload of 3 pointers in a Final four game is in trouble .

Villanova ends the game with 5-27 three pointers.
Ouch, that had to leave a mark.
