What to Know

The Loyola Chicago Ramblers will square off against the Harvard Crimson on the road at 2 p.m. ET Friday at Lavietes Pavilion. Harvard will be strutting in after a victory while the Ramblers will be stumbling in from a defeat.

Loyola Chicago received a tough blow on Sunday as they fell 67-51 to the Texas A&M Aggies.

Meanwhile, the Crimson were able to grind out a solid win over the Siena Saints on Sunday, winning 69-59.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Loyola Chicago is expected to win a tight contest. They have failed bettors playing the spread in all their past five games, so buyers beware.

Loyola Chicago's loss took them down to 2-3 while Harvard's win pulled them up to 4-1. We'll see if Loyola Chicago can steal Harvard's luck or if Harvard records another victory instead.
