Loyola (MD) Greyhounds +11

Neither American or Loyola will set the court ablaze. We expect a low-scoring game with a lot of bad shots taken. The Under is not a great look as it is set so low, but the game should be played with a single digit deficit. In that case, we take Loyola with the points. Prediction: American wins 73-66.
