VCU's resume shows some bright spots, particularly on the defensive end, where they rank impressively compared to many peers. However, their offensive performance has been inconsistent, with struggles evident in key losses, including those against Seton Hall and Nevada, where they fell short in close games. The defeat against New Mexico further highlights concerns regarding their ability to win against stronger competition. Upcoming matchups against teams like St. Bonaventure and Dayton present critical opportunities; winning these could enhance their profile, but slipping up again could further jeopardize their postseason aspirations.
