News, Notes, and Highlighted Games: Sunday, Jan 30--Hoops HD
HIGHLIGHTED GAMES:
-LOYOLA CHICAGO AT DRAKE (Missouri Valley). Drake has been somewhat of a disappointment this year, but they are still capable of playing really well, and considering that Loyola Chicago has had to sweat out a lot of their conference wins lately, an upset is not out of the question at all.

NEWS AND NOTES:
-Loyola Chicago continues to struggle, and while they’re at-large hopes are far from dead, they are also becoming far from a certainty. I know Drake is good, and I know it’s not easy to win there, but that’s kind of the point. Making the NCAA Tournament isn’t easy, and it requires that teams win games that aren’t easy to win. Loyola Chicago has fewer chances to do that given the make up of their conference, so whenever they lose it’s more of a setback. I don’t believe they are out of strikes yet, but they are getting there.
