Being incredibly accurate from three-point land doesn't help Villanova when Miami can play that game too. To that end, a 15-point deficit suddenly has been floating between about 3 and 6 with Villanova having to play a little harder than I think they did in the first two rounds. 

Also, kudos to Arcidiacono on the slide. If that were a shortstop or second baseman, I am pretty sure the runner at first is safe and the double play averted.

shot.  those are little killers that don't show up much on a score sheet, but rob a team of it's momentum.   KU is my pick for the finals, but now want M-land after those calls.
