HOUSTON (AP) — Josh Hart scored 23 points on 10-of-12 shooting and Villanova advanced to the national championship game with a resounding 95-51 victory over Oklahoma Saturday night.
The Wildcats will face the winner of the North Carolina-Syracuse game for the title Monday night.
This was the biggest Final Four semifinal win ever, eclipsing the 34-point wins by Cincinnati over Oregon State in 1962 and Michigan State over Penn in 1979.
Villanova dominated the Sooners (29-8) after an opening 7 minutes at NRG Stadium that had the teams trading the lead on almost every possession.
