NEW ORLEANS — As Villanova’s starters were introduced to the sold-out crowd, Jay Wright sat on the bench, his arm around Justin Moore.
Without him, they didn’t have enough firepower or capable perimeter defenders against the top-seeded Jayhawks’ balanced inside-out attack. Villanova couldn’t contain the two Kansas stars, David McCormack and Ochai Agbaji, and fell to the Jayhawks, 81-65, in the opener of this highly anticipated Final Four of national powers at the Caesars Superdome. Kansas moves on to Monday’s national championship game, its first trip there in a decade, to face the Duke/North Carolina winner.
The bruising McCormack owned the paint, notching 25 points and nine rebounds, and Agbaji sank six of Kansas’ 13 3-pointers. The Jayhawks got whatever shot they wanted, and hit on a sizzling 54 percent from the field. In his final game at Villanova, fifth-year senior Collin Gillespie had 17 points and Brandon Slater added 16.After trailing by as many as 19, Villanova got to within six with 6:10 left, but never closer.
