The Wildcats are playing for another national championship. Perhaps one day we’ll be able to say that about Kansas State, but tonight we’ll have to settle for a dynamic, likable Villanova squad preparing to face Michigan for a chance at a second title in three years.
We saw Saturday in a satisfying blowout against Kansas why this ‘Nova offense is one of the best not just this season, but in college basketball history. It things are clicking, this game could end quickly. But the Wildcats aren’t infallible, and Michigan has certainly felt like a team of destiny despite not always playing phenomenal basketball this tournament.
