NCAA Saturday Hoops: Loyola MD @ Iona

[superbook]

YTD: 18-9

PICK: Iona +3


This is it guys, this is the day that Iona gets their first win. In their match-up last month at Loyola MD, Iona outrebounded the hounds 47-41 but hit only 26 of 72 from the field which resulted in their 66-75 loss.

Loyola MD should be favored by six so why is the line at three with 67% of the public on LoyMD? Because Vegas seems pretty sure that Loyola's 2nd leading scorer and leading rebounder, F Michael Tuck is not going to play. Tuck injured his ankle in practice last Tuesday and missed the game vs Manhattan where he was obviously missed.

I'm looking for Iona to shoot better today and Gael fans to storm the court and tear down the nets.

good luck.

BOL to you...

but be careful of putting too much impotance on the information about Tuck being questionable.

Tuck is replaced by Alujevic a former starter.
15 starts to Tucks 4.

Tuck is the leading rebounder but there are 4 others within .5 ARPG and one of those players is Alujevic.

Tuck is also 6th on the team in average minutes played.

He will be missed as far as the teams depth is concerned though.

again I wish you all the best of luck with it
