CAA Battle

While nearly all hoops fans are watching Kentucky and Carolina square off, one of the better matchups of the early season will be taking place with much less fanfare.

Most hoops fans are familiar with VCU, courtesy of Eric Maynor and company's 2006 tourney bouncing of Duke. Well, Maynor is off the the NBA and graduated, but VCU is looking as tough as ever.

Their opponent is not nearly as accustomed to the spotlight, but has the early makings of a true March darling. William & Mary is looking to build on their win over Wake Forest and take early command of a solid Colonial Conference.

The question is which W&M team shows up? The Mary that lost to Harvard? Or the Big Bill that bounced Wake?

Either way it a game worth watching and one that honestly impacts the tourney landscape in terms of at-large bids far more than the marquee matchup in Lexington.
