Skinny: The Ramblers continue their policy of scheduling other Jesuit schools, which is a nice hook, and Loyola looks to match its earlier wins over Canisius and Holy Cross. Alas, today's game appears to be overshadowed by the Ramblers' past. At halftime, Loyola will trot out most of the players from the 1984-85 team that won its first two NCAA Tournament games and forced No. 1 Georgetown to work to get the Sweet Sixteen win. Alfredrick Hughes, Andre Battle and Carl Golston are among the ex-Ramblers who'll be on hand. Also, Loyola will recognize its all-decade team from the 1980s.
