Not trying to be Debbie Downer but the Zags are currently ranked #31 in defensive efficiency, their lowest ranking since 2012. Some of that is skewed by games against Duke and Creighton, missing Tillie and Crandell, and perhaps most of all, a run and gun offense that results in a lot of possessions. All that said, history shows teams with porous defenses don't often win titles. And to listen to the coaches and players, sounds like they know they have work to do closing out and not getting caught flat-footed. Hoping they can figure it out. Maybe the Zags can score 95 to outgun opponents but I do miss some of those defensive juggernaut performances of the '16 squad.
