Virginia Commonwealth vs Rhode Island on 02/15 by Jay_Robinson

We’ve got some hot Ram-on-Ram action for you, with the Over as my 4-star pick of the week between VCU (Under 15-10) and Rhode Island (Over 15-8). As you can tell by their respective records, Rhode Island are the ones driving the bus here, despite their sad offense (No. 270 on Ken Pomeroy’s charts) and middling pace (67.8 possessions per game, No. 149). Virginia Commonwealth, currently the top team in the Atlantic 10, have a similar profile to their ovine cousins, but stronger in all areas – including the No. 28-ranked defense in Division I. They’ve split the totals 5-5 when they’re this low or lower; URI have the Over at 6-2.
