Navy @ VCU
Current Records: Navy 7-4; VCU 8-4
What to Know
The VCU Rams' homestand continues as they prepare to take on the Navy Midshipmen at 7 p.m. ET Dec. 21 at Stuart Siegel Center. These two teams are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.
VCU made easy work of the Northern Illinois Huskies this past Saturday and carried off a 90-63 win. The Rams can attribute much of their success to forward Jamir Watkins, who had 22 points along with seven rebounds.
Meanwhile, Navy was fully in charge on Sunday, breezing past the Washington College Shoremen 93-54 at home.
VCU is the favorite in this one, with an expected 9-point margin of victory. Those who got lucky with them against the spread this past Saturday might want to hold off on placing bets this time since the squad has yet to string together back-to-back wins against the spread.
Their wins bumped VCU to 8-4 and Navy to 7-4. After both teams made easy work of their previous opponents, one of them is set up to suffer a discouraging change of fortune.
