ESPN.com Power Rankings 2013

14. VCU
The Rams, as we all know, went to the Final Four in 2011. This team might be better. Juvonte Reddic (14.7 points per game) and Treveon Graham (15.1) could be on the verge of national breakout seasons and will get loads of help from a talented backcourt, anchored by Briante Weber. But forget about offense; lets talk about defense. The Rams truly created HAVOC last year, averaging a nations-best 11.9 steals per game. With the length and quickness on this roster, not to mention the aggressiveness, Shaka Smart has exactly the sort of team he loves to coach. -- Dana O'Neil
