I always think you have something of a coaching advantage as an underdog. You could see that last night. Villanova is going to do what they do in a game like that, at least initially. Steve gets to come up with wrinkles to start that they need to react to. That’s an oversimplification of course, because Villanova did have a Penn-specific game plan. They obviously wanted to make Clark work for every inch of the court. The wonderful thing about the last two games is that teams have to pick their poison. Perkins or Slajchert. So far, nobody has figured out how to cover both.
