Advanced Stats: Villanova Basketball Four Factors vs. Xavier

That eFG% is sexy as hell.

Villanova seemed to silence all the doubters in a 95-64 win over Xavier on Thursday afternoon. The 'Cats rained threes down on the Muskies and made them look silly with their defensive pressure, which made a primetime clash feel like a practice by the half.

Upon closer examination though, Villanova still has some areas to work on. As Chris Mack will likely say, "They are who we thought they were!" Villanova torched the nets and turned X over for easy baskets. Villanova's identity as a space and pace team allowed them to split the Four Factors - but Coach Wright still has some work to do with his team in a problem area.
