VCU Cheerleaders Hoping For Another Cinderella Season

And if this girl is still on the squad, then count me among the VCU faithful!

Final Four Cheerleader Preview - #8 Butler v. #11 VCU

It's the Battle of the Teams That Aren't Supposed To Be Here (or BOTTTASTBH for short). Honestly, this is the game I'm most excited to see. I love the fact that one of these teams is going to be playing for the National Championship in just 2 days. Since Butler was just there last year, I'm rooting for VCU this year. They are just a great story. But regardless of who wins this game, that's who I'm rooting for Monday night!

MY PICK: VCU

BUTLER BULLDOGS

 VCU RAMS



NCAA Tourney Elite 8 Cheerleader Preview - #1 Kansas v. #11 VCU

And the dream survives for at least one more game. Most people didn't think VCU even deserved to be in the play-in game. Now they are 1 win from the first Final Four in school history. Of course, it would be a HUGE win. Not many teams beat KU. Barely any teams like VCU best Kansas. As a Mizzou fan, though, you know I've got to root for the Rams.

MY PICK: KANSAS

KANSAS JAYHAWKS

VCU RAMS

A Little Love For the Suprise of the Tournament: VCU's Sarah

Sure they busted up my bracket a little bit by taking out Georgetown in the 1st round. But they also proved me right that Purdue DID NOT deserve a #3 seed in this tournament (check the comments in this post for a little humor).
But now VCU is the darling of the tournament and the new feel-good story. There has to be one every year, and after getting summarily bashed for even being in the play-in game the Rams have turned the tide in their favor. The public loves a good underdog story, and it doesn't get much more underdog than VCU.

To celebrate VCU's unlikely run to the Sweet Sixteen, may I present Sarah. An adorable Rams cheerleader that I have no doubt is absolutely ecstatic about VCU's success.

NCAA Tourney Round 1 Cheerleader Preview - #6 Georgetown v. #11 VCU

VCU looked pretty good on Wednesday night. Better than I expected. They played strong defense and really shut USC down. But that was USC, not Georgetown. The Hoyas are a much better team and they are getting one of their top players back for the tourney. VCU might be this year's Cinderella, but I just don't see it happening.

MY PICK: GEORGETOWN

GEORGETOWN HOYAS

VCU RAMS

NCAA Tourney Play-In Game Cheerleader Preview - USC v. VCU

Assuming you actually get truTV in your area, this game might just be worth watching tonight. USC is good, but not great. VCU is pretty damn tough. I'm not sure if it would be considered an upset if the Rams win tonight, but I think there will be plenty of people surprised when they see the score in the morning.

MY PICK: VCU

USC TROJANS

VIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH RAMS
