VCU WINS, VIRGINIA AT HOME AGAINST VIRGINIA TECH

The VCU Rams overcame a sluggish start in beating the Old Dominion Monarchs last night 61-48 in a key CAA match-up.  With the win the Rams are now in a 3 way ties for second place in the CAA with Old Dominion and Drexel and are chasing George Mason who are 7-1 in CAA play.  The Rams will be back in action at home against Hofstra.  The Virginia Cavaliers will be looking to keep Virginia Tech winless in the ACC tonight when the Hokies visit the JPJ Arena, the Cavs are 2-1 in the ACC while Tech enters the game at 0-4 in the ACC.  Well after today's action in the NFL we will know who will be in this years Super Bowl.  In the AFC Championship Game the Baltimore Ravens will be at New England where the Patriots are favored and in the NFC Championship Game the New York Giants will be at San Francisco to face the 49ers where the 49ers are slight favorites to win.  I am predicting that it will be the Giants against the Patriots in this years Super Bowl.  MICKEY
