Loyola Chicago at Youngstown State

Youngstown State will come into this game with 6 wins on the season, which may not sound like much, but an up-grade to the programs past. It is somewhat deceiving however, as they have really had many cupcakes, including two wins outside of D1-A. They are off a win vs. Kent, which normally would be a big win, but Kent also lost to Cleveland State and already has 5 losses, so we don't look at that to be what you might think it is. Loyola, Chicago may turn out to be the team to beat in this conference, and they certainly have the talent to do so. This is a veteran team and they know that if they are to truly be the contenders they believe they are, they have to win at places like Youngstown St. Loyola has relished this role as they have been 20-8 ATS as a small favorite from 1-6.5 last 28, while Youngstown St. has covered just 2 of their last 10 inside the Horizon. We will back Loyola as they appear to be the team to beat, and won't slip up on the road.
