No beer sales. Lack of parking compared to the other arenas. Marriott isn’t very nice with bench seats.

Good News: Last time BYU opened the tourney in Denver, they advanced to Sweet 16. Bad news: VCU advanced to Final 4

But this tournament thrives off of upsets an most will not know Kentucky is mid.

stonecougar

In the limited highlights I've seen of VCU, they don't play nearly as physical

SoCalCoug

I think that Keba and Foss will be the keys to this game.

VCU won't be able to handle either of them.

Man, I can’t force myself to give Wisconsin or Montana the win if we beat VCU. So my bracket is tough.

ChinaFan All-American

IMO BYU deserved a 5 seed, but can't be too unahappy with the the seed, the opponent and the path to the second weekend.

We don't need to "massively upgrade speed and quickness". We just won 9 games in a row in
