  14....not out of reach.

  Well VCU is up 14 at the half. Huge huge surprise come on VCU.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  I'm inclined to think Kansas makes a run and VCU eventually goes cold and Kansas makes it interesting.
  It may be too much of a hole though.
  Kansas will spend all their energy just to get back.

  Kansas is the deepest team in the tourney, they don't run out of energy...VCU is the ones who will (hopefully) run out of energy trying to keep this lead. Gonna be a great 2nd half.

  It's not that VCU is shooting lights out because they are not, its more of Kansas can't hit anything...2's,3's or ft's.
• wghfan

  I hope VCU finishes them off. Tired of hearing the Kansas hype all year.

  Kansas hype...lol
• reclegend22

  

  VCU is not shooting lights out? They hit nine first half threes. They are halfway toward breaking the NCAA tournament record of 20 by Loyola Marymount (I believe). VCU shot lights out.
  
  I agree about KU playing horribly, though. Forget the Wildcats, Kentucky Fried Chicken could have beaten Kansas in those first 20 minutes.

  Kansas has some depth, but it's not depth that can score a lot.
• reclegend22

  

  I expect KU to make a quick run and retake this lead and win.

  Here is the Kansas run.....

  Yep have a chance to cut it to 10 after the break.
  
  Who will step up for VCU?
• Tiger2003

  

  VCU legs are gone it looks like.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  VCU needed to take that open 3.
  Instead, he hesitated and drove inside and got stripped.
  
  VCU is getting good looks, they are just making bad decisions.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Wow, VCU is falling apart.
• Tiger2003

  

  VCU looks done for. Ref fucked VCU should have been a shooting foul then VCU coach gets T'd up.

  Def wasn't an offensive foul there, but the T is gonna kill vcu here.

• killer_ewok

  

  Kansas rallying like you knew they would. How will VCU respond after the T?

  Skeen air balled a open 3 Rodriguez got his man up in the air and had a open shot and missed it.

  Yeah, they are getting good outside looks.
  Inside, not so much.
