With only one ranked game on the slate, it was a no-brainer as to who would get the nod for the game of the night and it didn't disappoint with a 63-61 score. No. 16 VCU went to St. Louis to take on the Bilikens and it was a tight one all night. It was all knotted up at 34 at halftime and the first half certainly came with it's fair share of highlight plays.
