No betting line has been posted for this game yet. Sportsbooks usually post college basketball lines the day before; a few small-conference games get one only on game day or not at all. Books also take a line down for a while when a key player's status is unclear. We check ESPN and The Odds API several times a day and add the line as soon as there is one.

Not a promise: a 75% pick still loses about 2 times in 10.

Advantages Why Georgetown can win

  1. Home court: Georgetown play at home, worth about 3 points in college basketball, more than in the NBA.
  2. Strength of schedule: Georgetown 59th (+1.0), Loyola Maryland 336th (-0.9) of 365.
  3. Net rating (points per 100 possessions): Georgetown 161st (+1.0), Loyola Maryland 272nd (-7.0) of 365.
  4. Georgetown's offense (108.7 points per 100 possessions, 166th in Division I) meets a Loyola Maryland defense that ranks 299th.
  5. Team matchup: where Georgetown can take advantage. Their shooting efficiency (257th of 365) meets the Loyola Maryland shooting defense (321st), so look for them to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
  6. Star matchup: no key position clearly favors Georgetown. The closest: best player against best player, Braeden Speed (Loyola Maryland: 15.3 pts, 4.4 reb, 3.8 ast, Game Score 12.1) is about even with KJ Lewis (Georgetown: 14.9 pts, 5.1 reb, 2.5 ast, Game Score 11.0).
  7. Simulation: Georgetown win 3,755 of 5,000 simulated games.

Disadvantages Why Georgetown may not

  1. Range of outcomes: in the worst 10% of simulations Georgetown lose by 7 or more.
  2. Defensive rebounding (share of misses): Loyola Maryland 103rd (71.0%), Georgetown 228th (68.5%) of 365.
  3. Weak spot: Georgetown rank 284th of 365 in three-point shooting (31.8%).
  4. Weak spot: Georgetown rank 257th of 365 in effective shooting (eFG%) (49.6%).
  5. Team matchup: a strength Georgetown may not get to use. Their offensive rebounding (107th of 365) meets the Loyola Maryland defensive rebounding (103rd), one of the better units at stopping it, which can take away their plan to crash the glass for second chances.
  6. Star matchup: the key positions lean Georgetown on paper, but Braeden Speed (15.3 pts, 4.4 reb, 3.8 ast, Game Score 12.1) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
  7. Upset odds: Loyola Maryland win 1,245 of 5,000 simulations (25%). A 75% pick still loses about 2 times in 10.
