ANALYSIS:
Per this website's calculations, Loyola-Chicago is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Carrying a record of 23-10, they are currently rated #95 overall (out of 362) in All-Play Percentage this season. Of the 15 schools in the A-10 (average ranking 121.2), they're currently ranked as our #8 team in the conference.

Loyola-Chicago will mainly try to find success through their defense. They are ranked 36th in defensive efficiency and allow fewer than 98 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Loyola-Chicago will do a number on many an opponent's shooting percentage, as the team ranks in the top-25 in three of our four major defensive field goal categories. They're most likely to shut you down inside the three-point arc, considering the team limits AO to converting just 33.5% of their mid-range jumpers (ninth in the nation), 51.8% of their near-proximity chances (22nd), and 40.1% of their total shots from the field (22nd). Loyola-Chicago is also one of the better teams when it comes to not allowing opponents to convert scoring chances off of offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 4.1% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 26th in the NCAA).

The offense for Loyola-Chicago, on the other hand, isn't nearly as efficient as the defense is. The team is ranked 184th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 105 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Loyola-Chicago is downright rotten when shooting the mid-range jumper. The team is ranked 341st in field goal percentage from that distance, making only 33.9% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO. Loyola-Chicago is also not one of the better teams when it comes to sinking foul shots. Converting just 67.4% of their attempts, the squad is ranked #319 overall in free throw percentage.

When playing on the road, Loyola-Chicago performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 316th in our site's away-from-home metric.
