Loyola (MD) vs Boston Univ. Prediction
Loyola (MD) beat Boston earlier this month, so it’s worth taking a look in the underdog role. However, Boston Univ is still the better team overall and has still won eight of the last 10 games against Loyola MD. Boston Univ has seen 10 of its 13 wins this season come at home, and it’s fresh off a nice upset win over Colgate where it scored 93 points. That’s the sort of win that could lead to a strong finish to the season. We’re not being asked to lay anything crazy, and this has been a one-sided rivalry in recent years. I’ll lay the points with Boston Univ at home.
