DETROIT -- Not trying to pull a Billy Packer, but this game is just about over if Villanova doesn't start getting some defensive stops. With UNC leading 43-27 with less than six minutes to go, the Tar Heels are shooting a sizzling 60 percent from the floor, including 6-for-9 on 3-pointers. Anytime the Wildcats fail to cover a UNC player on the perimeter, the Tar Heels make them pay. Villanova is shooting 38.7 percent but is only 1-for-8 on 3-pointers.
