Loyola-Chicago Ramblers
The top-seed in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament and regular season champions, Loyola-Chicago is looking to finish a terrific MVC season with a NCAA Tournament berth.
The Ramblers gained national spotlight in the non-conference when they beat Florida by ten points in Gainesville. The two losses in the non-conference both came on the road, at Boise State and at Milwaukee
[dfads params=’groups=20599&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
They beat Illinois State twice in the conference regular season, at home and on the road.
Clayton Custer is the leading-scorer. The 6’1″ guard from Overland Park, Kansas is remarkably efficient; he shoots 53 percent from the field and almost 46 percent on about six three-point tries per game.
Custer can be so efficient because he isn’t being asked to be the volume scorer he could be on a team without as much depth as the Ramblers. Five guys score in double-figures and the next leading-scorer, Ben Richardson, averages the second-most minutes on the team as a do-everything senior guard.
Illinois State Redbirds
These two teams played one another in their final game of the regular season, Loyola-Chicago winning by seven at its place. The game was incredibly close for the entire game, though. The final margin of victory was the largest lead Loyola-Chicago held all day.
The Redbirds got 41 points from its starting backcourt Keyshawn Evans and William Tinsley. The leading-scorer on the season is junior forward Milik Yarbrough, though.

Yarbrough sat out last season after transferring from Saint Louis. He’s returning home to his former home for a chance to play for an NCAA Tournament berth now.
He can score but doesn’t have to to impact the game in a positive way for his team. He shot only 4-for-9 the last time these two teams played but grabbed seven rebounds and collected six assists.
CBB Betting Trends:
