Game #26 - Feb 18 - GMU @ Loyola-Chicago, 7 pm, ESPN+

game on short rest
I suspect the team is traveling to Chicago tomorrow

ESPN Analytics has GMU as heavy favorites
L-C is in a 3-way tie for 4th place - and the last bye - so i don't expect them to rollover
5 point win for Mason at Home

I expect to see the same starting lineup - but with Massenberg, MJ Johnson, and Amoateng getting a big plus up in minutes and K. Johnson and Greenburg seeing more court time

Still of the opinion that it would be more helpful to post the various Loyola team stats in column form alongside Mason's numbers on the same stats (a la Kenpom). Much easier to compare and get a sense of relative strengths and weaknesses.

As Jesse alluded to, this is a sneaky difficult game - 4th game in 8 days, Loyola played us very tough at home. I absolutely agree that the reserves will see even more minutes than they did vs Richmond.

Fingers crossed they can keep the momentum going and lock up a top 3 seed tonight.
