KEY GAME INFORMATION
TEXAS TECH: Last season: 18-14.
Who's gone: F Anthony Livingston; F Aaron Ross; G Devon Thomas; F Matthew Temple; F Thomas Brandsma.
Who's back: G Keenan Evans, the team's top scorer at 15.4 points per game while shooting 43 percent on 3-pointers; F Zach Smith, who averaged 12.1 points and team-best 7.2 rebounds; F Justin Gray, who shot 53 percent from the field; G Niem Stevenson.
Who's new: Most of the team with 11 newcomers. Seven are true freshmen along with junior college transfer guards Josh Webster and Hyron Edwards, and two Division I transfers, Tommy Hamilton IV from DePaul and Brandone Francis from Florida.
The Skinny: With five seniors and seven freshmen, Beard was spot-on when he said the team's "chemistry is a work in progress." When the former Red Raiders assistant returned to Texas Tech last year as head coach, he brought in three graduate transfers among six new players. Whether the Raiders can get back to their second NCAA Tournament in 11 seasons will depend on how the seasoned seniors and the youngsters come together on the court.
VILLANOVA: Last season: 32-4, lost in second round of NCAA Tournament.
Who's gone: G Josh Hart, G Kris Jenkins, F Darryl Reynolds
Who's back: G Jalen Brunson, the sensational junior point guard, averaged 14.7 points, shot 54 percent from the field, had 148 assists and flirted with the idea of leaving for the NBA. G Phil Booth led the Wildcats in scoring in the national championship game in 2016. He missed most of last season with an injured left knee. F Omari Spellman, G Donte DiVincenzo and G Mikal Bridges round out a lineup for the Big East favorites.
Who's new: The Wildcats added Collin Gillespie, Dhamir Cosby-Roundtree and Jermaine Samuels to the lineup.
The Skinny: The Wildcats were picked to win their fifth straight regular-season conference title, Brunson was chosen as the conference's preseason player of the year, and Spellman was selected freshman of the year. The 2016 national champions should again be among the small group of programs that can win it all on that first Monday in April.
PREVIEW
Texas Tech meets Villanova for spot in Final Four
 

BOSTON -- Having already reached new program heights by advancing to the Elite Eight for the first time, Texas Tech finds itself one win from the Final Four.

Now all second-seeded Texas Tech has to do is get past top-seeded Villanova on Sunday in the NCAA Tournament East Region final at TD Garden.

"I told the guys, when you continue to advance in the tournament, you're just going to continue to play the best teams in the country, and that's certainly our opinion of Villanova," Red Raiders coach Chris Beard said at Saturday's off-day media conference.

"Just being a basketball guy, they're a team I'm familiar with because I try to watch them whenever they're on TV at night. Just love the way they play. A lot of things we do defensively, we've taken from Villanova, in terms of switching and playing versatile players."

Keenan Evans led four Red Raiders in double figures with 16 points as Texas Tech (27-9) finished off third-seeded Purdue late Friday night to capture the first Sweet 16 victory in the history of a program now in its second season under Beard.

The Red Raiders defeated Stephen F. Austin and Florida to get to Boston. They now face a team that has been No. 1 in the country this season.

The Wildcats, seeking their second national title in the last three years and their third all-time, survived a slugfest against former Eastern 8 and Big East opponent West Virginia on Friday. They won their eighth in a row, led by Jalen Brunson with 27 points and Omari Spellman with 18 points, eight rebounds, three assists, three blocked shots and two steals.

Villanova (33-4) expects another physical contest, something Big East teams are quite used to.

"These guys, man, we watched film of Texas Tech and West Virginia playing each other. Man, it was more physical than our game," Villanova coach Jay Wright said of Tech's three Big 12 contests against West Virginia this season. "But a very well-coached team, very disciplined on both ends of the floor. Can really grind you.

"Their motion screening action is unique, reminiscent of Bobby Knight's teams, that you don't really see that as much anymore."

The Wildcats are 6 1/2-point favorites to advance to San Antonio. A win would also give Wright his second East Region title in as many tries in the building. Villanova won in Boston in 2009.

"The physicality West Virginia played with is the same Texas Tech is going to bring with the length they have on the defensive end," said Villanova's Phil Booth, who had six points, six rebounds and four assists Friday night. "As you saw (Friday) night with (Sagaba) Konate, they really protect the floor, but a lot of guys they had last night with (Wesley) Harris and (Lamont) West, they're the same with Texas Tech that brings a lot of athleticism as well.

"They're one of the best defensive teams in the country. So a lot of physicality on the defensive end is similar to that."

Despite having to sweat it out against West Virginia, Villanova has won its three tournament games by a combined 61 points and have also won their last seven games during the streak by double figures -- including an overtime victory over Providence in the Big East final.

"We know defense wins championships, and that's our identity," Evans said. "So we had to bring our identity to this tournament and get in the gym to work on a few more things to fix it up.

"We know that this game, we can't get into a scoring match with Villanova. They're such an offensively powerful team. We just have to defend them really well."
