MVC (2)
The Missouri Valley is a two-bid league for the moment. Loyola Chicago (22-7, 13-5) is the very last team in today, following the Ramblers’ 102-96 loss at Northern Iowa Saturday night. That result gave the Panthers the No. 1 seed in Arch Madness and bumped Loyola all the way down to the 4 seed—behind second-seeded Missouri State and No. 3 Drake.
Given the teams behind them, the Ramblers will likely need to win three games in St. Louis starting on Friday. But each potential round puts a significant obstacle in their path. Loyola dropped its second meeting with quarterfinal opponent Bradley, 68-61, in Peoria on February 9th. Northern Iowa would lurk in the semifinals. Then, the Ramblers went 1-3 against Missouri State and Drake. Not easy at all.
