Richmond

Always interesting to see the perspective of people who haven't watched much, if any, of Richmond. Stats can be deceiving, and when you see one of the best backcourts in the country in Kevin Anderson and David Gonzalvez and one of the stingiest defenses with a confounding switching man-to-man run by a bunch of quick, long-armed players, you'll have a better understanding of why they're a Top 25 team. You may not think they're an offensive team based on their scoring average, but they run an efficient offense, limiting their turnovers and slowing the game while making buckets with an effective FG% of over 50%. Will they make a deep run? I don't know. The match-up with St. Mary's is an intriguing one, but if they get by that, I like their chances against a Villanova team that has slipped at the end of the season. The Spiders will hang around, and their experience and leadership lets them pull it out a remarkably high percentage of the time.
