Whether VCU will have a legit at-large case should it lose today, one thing is certain; a lot of teams on the bubble will be rooting for the Rams. Not easy, however; Tony Skinn's Patriots rank 12th nationally in scoring D (63.1 pg) and have rolled past dangerous GW and St Joe's thus far in D.C., and bullish ETSU transfer PF Jalen Haynes is making a case as the MVP of this event, scoring 23 pg thus far in D.C. The Rams did take out GMU 70-54 at Richmond on Feb. 22, using a 17-2 spurt at the start of the second half, but nerves, Skinn's sticky defense, and GMU momentum suggest it will be much closer today.
