12. Richmond vs. 1. Kansas -
Would Richmond winning stun the world? Well, yeah and stranger things have happened. It's not inconceivable. They play a Princeton style offense which makes sense since Chris Mooney went there so that may give Kansas problems and Kansas guard play is sketchy at times, so....
Kansas 77 Richmond 59
11. VCU vs. 10. Florida State
Here's a contrast in styles. As we've seen, VCU likes to get up and down and have been wildly successful thus far beating a beat-up Georgetown team and a very good Purdue team. Florida State grinded out a win over offensively-challenged Texas A&M and then completely outclassed a great shooting team in Notre Dame. I like FSU in this game because I think they can do a better job taking away VCU's game than VCU can make FSU outscore them. BUT, FSU does turn the ball over and VCU is pretty good at making steals. Also, FSU is pretty mediocore at the line so in a close game, that could be an issue. FWIW, VCU found a way to outgrind USC, so they can win a slugfest and USC is similar to FSU.
Florida State 63 VCU 61
