VCU is the best unranked mid-major in the country. It really surprises me that Saint Louis is ranked 10th in the country right now and yet VCU received hardly any Top 25 votes. Those two teams are not far apart, as evidenced by Billikens beating Rams by just two points in St. Louis last week. Biggest key to this game is VCU is on its way to leading the country in defensive turnover percentage for the third straight year under Shaka Smart, as their current 26.5 percent is obliterating the national average of 18.5 percent, and Massachusetts is 236th in offensive turnover percentage at 19.6 percent. Minutemen are just treading water right now going 4-4 in their last eight Atlantic 10 games including a bad home loss to George Mason.
