VCU Into NCAA Third Round VCU Mania is officially back in session, thanks to the Rams’ thrilling 62-59 upset victory against No. 5 seed Wichita State Thursday in Portland’s Rose Garden arena. In the next round Saturday, VCU (29-6) will play the winner of the late Thursday Indiana-New Mexico State game. This is the 21st time in the last 23 tournaments that a No. 12 has defeated a No. 5. What had been a rather sloppy game with poor shooting by both sides turned into an old-fashioned shootout at the end, with both teams hitting a series of pressurized three-pointers.
