SourceLoyola’s returning minutes matter

SourceNew faces could shape Loyola’s scoring
Leo Ricketts arrives after averaging 19.7 points and shooting 47.5% from three at Citrus College, while D’Andre Harrison and Maximo Ortega are also expected to add to Loyola’s rotation.
SourceGeorgetown has encouraging availability updates
Jaland Lowe was reported fully cleared for basketball activities, and Vince Iwuchukwu was reported eligible for 2026-27; neither update confirms an opening-night role or minutes limit.
SourceA steep opening spread
Georgetown is listed as a 25-point favorite with a 150-point total; treat those as the current market snapshot rather than a confirmed assessment of final lineups.
SourcePick Ideas
Under 150 points — slight lean
Consider the under at 150 because it is a season opener and roster turnover may hinder early offensive execution; check for late lineup or availability news before betting.
Loyola Maryland +25 — points cushion
Loyola +25 is a cautious, high-variance look if the number holds, since the spread allows a competitive game without requiring an upset.
