So here’s what we think will happen Saturday night.
Let’s look at the so-called undercard first where Kansas and Villanova will square off. Some undercard!
Villanova will be without Justin Moore, who blew out his Achilles in the last :30 seconds against Houston in the South Regional Finals.
It was a devastating injury for Moore obviously but we’ll bet on Villanova for one simple reason: culture. Jay Wright may have the toughest and hardest-nosed team in New Orleans.
Not to knock what Bill Self has built at Kansas, but Wright has built something special at Villanova.
