Both of these teams come into this game ranked towards the top of the A-10 conference standings. Davidson is on a very long winning streak and has had a great offensive attack this season. VCU likes to play slower, only averaging about 120 total points in their games this year. Davidson is going to eventually lose, but I can’t go against one of the hottest teams in basketball right now.
