    Some notes on this game...

    Loyola is 0-6 at home this year, losing by an average of 13 ppg.

    Loyola and Niagara have played 3 common opponents this season. Loyola is 0-3 SU in these games while Niagara is 3-0. Both played Siena and Iona. Loyola lost these games by an average of 18 ppg. Niagara won the games vs. these teams by an average of 11 ppg.

    Loyola is a team struggling to put the same players on the court to start a game. So far, they have used 6 different starting line-ups with only one player starting every game. It's tough to gel and play as a team when this happens. Bobby Bossman (forward) was injured last game and may not be at 100% tonight. On the other side of the ball, Niagara has used the same starting five in every game so far this year.

    Loyola can't shoot. In their last 5 games their FG% has been 24.1, 31.7, 35, 41.5, 31.7 and 35.8%. Not good.

    Niagara is 11-0 ATS in road games after allowing 80 or more points in their previous game.

    Loyola has dropped 27 in a row dating back to last year. It will be 28 after tonight and I can find no reason to believe it won't be by more than 15 points.

    Good luck.

      Thanks FastBreak...

      Another thing about Niagara...they can score. They rank 6th in the nation in scoring offense at 85.5 ppg. Obviously, this puts them at the top of their conference in this category. As a matter of fact, in their conference they are first in FG%, 2nd in FT% and 3rd in three point shooting %.

      Hopefully, it all holds true to form tonight. :D
