Jay Bilas and Villanova have had some great offensive teams in recent seasons, but not this year. Villanova is ranked No. 8 in the Big East in scoring and No. 12 in field goal shooting, just 41.5% from the field. Both of these teams are young and played much better on offense at home than on the road. Villanova has sophomore JayVaughn Pinkston and freshman point guard Ryan Arcidiacono, so how good will this offense click away from home on the big national stage with all this youth? The UNDER is 5-0 in the Wildcats last five non-conference games and 4-0 UNDER the total in their last four NCAA Tournament games. Speaking of youth, North Carolina is short on experience, too, led by sophomore James Michael McAdoo, junior Reggie Bullock, sophomore P.J. Hairston and freshman Marcus Paige. The UNDER is 5-0 in the Tar Heels' last five contests against the Big East, while Villanova is 6-2-1 UNDER the total against the ACC, so the offenses of both won't shine like they do at home. Go with the UNDER.
