Loyola Chicago vs. Stanford Prediction, Odds, Lines, Picks, and Preview- December 22 | 2022 NCAA Basketball Regular Season

The Loyola Chicago Ramblers head to the West Coast to face the Stanford Cardinal.

The Cardinal have struggled significantly this year, beginning the season (4-7). Stanford has played a challenging schedule, but they must play better if they wish to make a run at an NCAA tournament bid.

The Loyola Chicago Ramblers are familiar with knocking off more talented opponents as the 'Sister Jeans' are infamous for their Final Four run just a few short seasons ago. Most recently, they upset the Clemson Tigers. Loyola Chicago won't be intimidated by their West Coast road trip against a Pac-12 opponent.

Will Stanford overwhelm Loyola Chicago, or will the Ramblers keep up their surprising ways?

Loyola Chicago Ramblers vs. Stanford Cardinal Final Prediction

The Stanford Cardinal have had an up-and-down start to their 2022 season. In one game, Stanford looks like a team that could play in March. In the next game, they look like a team that doesn't belong. Until Stanford addresses their inconsistencies, the Stanford Cardinal will remain a Bubble team at best until they iron out their inconsistencies.

Loyola Chicago plays up to their competition, and traveling to face the Stanford Cardinal won't overwhelm them. I'm taking Loyola Chicago to win this game outright, so I most assuredly will take the Ramblers and the points.

Loyola Chicago Ramblers +5.5 (-110) Over 125 (-110)
