Big East (Syracuse, 61%) Somehow, the Orange lead the nation in steal percentage and are second in block percentage and yet their defense isn’t dominant. (Partial explanation: anemic defensive rebounding.) The Orange have been consistently fantastic on offense, though, scoring at least a point per possession in all but one game. They get one additional game against the five Big East bottom dwellers compared to Marquette giving them a little more room for error in this analysis.
