This matchup features the Wichita State Shockers out of the American Athletic and the VCU Rams out of the Atlantic 10.
The last time these teams met was back in 2012. Wichita State won this game 53-51.
Wichita State Shockers
Since getting blown out by Oklahoma, the Shockers have won three straight games. They are looking for another solid win to improve their resume. Especially with this game being on the road, a win could prove to be very important moving forward.
Taking a look at the Shockers offense, there is nothing that really stands out. They struggle shooting the ball, averaging 41% from the field and 31.8% from the three point line. Furthermore they only shoot 65.9% from the free throw line. Facing a VCU defense that is known for their ability to force turnovers could be very concerning for the Shockers. Look for them to focus on taking care of the ball and finding high percentage shots instead of taking a ton of contested shots.

The defense for the Shockers is similar to the offense as it is not very impressive. They do allow only 69.6 points, but in their one other away game they allowed 80 points. The key for the Shockers will be to force the Rams into low percentage shots and to force some turnovers to hopefully get some easy buckets.
VCU Rams
The Rams have now lost two in a row and really need to break this slide before conference play starts. They continue to focus of defense, but will need to find more scoring if they are going to hold off Wichita State.
The lack of offense contributes to a lot of the Rams struggles so far. They only shoot 38.9% from the field and 27.9% from three. This alone tells us that they are not a very high scoring team. Someone will need to step up and lead the Rams if they are going to win this game.
