It's easy to think offense in this marquee matchup of fourth-ranked Villanova against 13th-rated Gonzaga. After all, Villanova averages 86.4 points while the Bulldogs average 92.9 points a game, third-best in the nation.

But what's overlooked is the high quality of defense both teams play. It's not a fluke that the Under has cashed in 68 percent of Villanova's last 34 games.

Keep in mind, too, this is a neutral site game in spacious Madison Square Garden with its difficult shooting backdrop.
