Toledo at Loyola Chicago

Toledo opens the season on the road. They are a team that got off to a slow start last year, and they face a team that over the last three seasons has gone 12-5 (.706) in November. Loyola-Chicago has the home court and is led by 6-foot-8 Ben Averkamp, a Preseason Second Team All-Horizon League selection this year for the second straight campaign. He has recorded 989 points, 473 rebounds, 140 assists and 119 blocks. This is a deep frontcourt as fifth-year senior 6-6 Jordan Hicks is starting the season healthy for just the second time since his freshman year in 2008-09. The Ramblers are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven games overall and 4-1 ATS in their last five non-conference games. Play Loyola-Chicago.
