Georgetown has failed to break 70 points during its last five games. The Hoyas managed only 59 points against Creighton in their last game.

Villanova gives up fewer than 68 points per game on the season. The Hoyas are going to have to earn their points the hard way as they are one of the worst 3-point shooting teams in the country.

This should be a very slow-paced game. Villanova plays at the slowest tempo of any Big East team.

Note, too, the venue: Madison Square Garden. This is a spacious arena with a history of Unders. The Under has cashed 69 percent of the time during the past 39 instances when there has been a total of 136 or higher at this arena in postseason college games.
