Villanova couldn't miss from 3 against our beloved Hawks. They start 1-8 from 3 against Michigan. Is Michigan playing that much better defense? Seem at this point it's more "hot" versus "cold." Think of the difference in our game if the Wildcats had started 1-8 from 3.
I think it's a little of both - colder shooting and the Mich D. The Michigan defenders are not helping (our guys were helping) so Villanova is not getting many open looks. DiVincenzo has been on fire, but even his threes were well behind the arc.
