2. The "worse" shooting in college, is somewhat offset by the closer 3 point line and the not quite as good individual defenders in college.
3. Zones work better in college than the NBA, because you can't play a "true" zone in the NBA. Sure you can zone in the NBA, but it's not the same because there is no defensive 3 seconds rule in college. In college, you can just plant Taco Fall (or whatever other big man) around the charge circle the entire possession, which you can't do in the nba.

Zones also work bc college teams as a whole don't pass that well.
