The inside-outside combination of Jared Sullinger and Jon Diebler presents a pick-your-poison type dilemma for Buckeye opponents.

You either double-team Sullinger and risk an open three-point attempt by Diebler, or you let Sullinger, who is one of the most efficient low-post scorers in the nation, operate one-on-one.

George Mason has a defensive profile that matches up very well with the Buckeyes' offensive strategy.

From ESPN.com’s Matt Giles via Synergy Sports Technology, GMU's opponents manage only .79 points per jumper -- 12th best in the nation.

The Patriots are also effective at limiting paint points, holding opponents to a paltry .69 points per possession on the block.
