Virginia Commonwealth at Northeastern

The Huskies have turned their season around, as they have now won five of their last six. It is easy to see why. They have held their last six opponents to 109-314 from the field - good for 34.7%. They have also kept the percentage down beyond the arc, at 29.4%, and have out-rebounded opponents by 3.3 boards per game. They are doing better at what VCU has made their own trademark - defense. VCU can play some defense, but their offense is highly suspect as they hit just 43.7%. We have to wonder if they get caught here looking towards a Bracket-Busting showdown at Akron with their comfortable two-game lead over George Mason. Public doesn't think so as they are behind the Rams 70%, but we like the commitment this team is making on the boards and on defense which always keeps you in games. Upset possible.
