#738 ASA PLAY ON 8* Bradley +4.5 over Loyola Chicago, Wednesday at 9 PM ET - This is a very dangerous game for Loyola. The Ramblers are coming off a huge road win @ Missouri State as they moved into 1st place in the MVC with the win. It was a game they had circled in red after losing at home to Missouri State by 10 points just a few weeks ago. So this will be the 2nd straight road game for the Ramblers and they have another huge game on deck vs Northern Iowa who currently sits in 2nd place in the conference. Our power ratings have Loyola as a 1-point favorite so we like the value here. Bradley is playing their best basketball of the season winning 5 of their last 6 both SU & ATS. The Braves match up very well with Loyola as they showed in the first meeting this year blowing a 16 point 2nd half lead on the road and losing in OT. Loyola had a big advantage at the FT line at +13 and still couldn’t put this Bradley team away. The Braves have a big size advantage over Loyola and they are the #1 rebounding team in the conference so they should control the interior. Bradley is also outstanding defensively ranking 1st in the MVC in eFG% allowed and 2nd in efficiency so they should be able to limit Loyola offensively. We have Bradley currently rated as the 3rd best team in this conference behind Loyola and Missouri State. It looks like the Ramblers will also be without starting guard Kennedy as he is dealing with a knee issue. Bradley is more than capable of winning this game and we’re getting a full 4 points so we’ll grab it.
