Loyola Chicago at Tennessee Tech

Loyola, Chicago struggled at home in their opener vs. Milwaukee Wisconsin to come away with a 4-point win, but failing to get the cover. Loyola lost three of their top five scorers from a year ago, including their top scorer in Ben Averkamp. Tennessee Tech played up in their opener vs. South Florida and did okay, bowing by just 10. The sleeper here is freshman Ty Allen who poured in 29 points against a better South Florida team, and gives them the go-to guy down the stretch, which should be the difference here in a close game. The Golden Eagles have responded to their last four losses by getting the money in their next contest. The Ramblers have struck out in their next game at 0-3-1 ATS after a win. Take Tennessee Tech.
