Championship game is the one to get to. VCU is going to do VCU regardless of if we play them on Sunday or Saturday. They are tough either way. Every other top 4 seeded team is going to be just as exponentially tired or not tired as the other 3.
If this team makes it to Sunday, at large hopes aren't totally out the window. Get beat by anyone on Saturday and is't almost definitely a no go based on record, conference strength, and overall body of work. Not taking away from a pretty good season given the situation they are in.
Here's the thing...you get VCU on Saturday and possibly beat them...you then get to finals and possibly lose to who knows. That doesn't look good no matter who you beat on Saturday.
Give yourself a chance at beating the #1 seed in the championship game. That's where it's at and that is what is best for the program. Not getting beat on Saturday.
