Loyola is a #8 seed in the Midwest, and will play #9 seed Georgia Tech-
https://www.cbssports.com/college-ba...ament/bracket/
Not the best seed considering Loyola is #10 in the NET, and they have a tough matchup vs. the winner of the ACC Tournament Georgia Tech.

If Loyola can get by Georgia Tech in the first round, they will play the winner of the #1 Illinois-#16 Drexel game, which will almost certainly be Illinois.

Glad Drake made it in. Hope they can do the Valley proud and win against the shockers. That would taste real sweet.
I think Loyola got completely shafted by their seeding. 10 in NET and a top 25 team gets an 8 seed?? Please.Thinking is the hardest work, that is why so few people do it. -Henry Ford
Yeah...I've been in college for a while now and I'm pretty sure that awesomest is not a word. -Andrew E.

Here are the NCAA's complete list of seeds in order-
Note that Drake was seeded #48 overall, which makes them the lowest seeded at-large team.
They were literally the last team in the tournament, according to the NCAA Selection Committee.

Top 5 teams left out-
The top five KenPom teams left out of the NCAA Tournament:
No. 33 Duke
No. 35 Penn State
No. 38 Memphis
No. 46 Indiana
No. 47 Saint Louis
Gotta feel really bad for Duke. They finished in 10th place in the ACC with a 9-9 record (11-11 overall).
Yeah, right.

#8 seed was an absolute jip job - but at least Drake got in, which I was thinking they wouldn't.

This is good news for Loyola.... Georgia Tech, Loyola's first round opponent on Friday will not have their best player available.
Leading scorer and rebounder Moses Wright, a 6'9" senior forward, will miss Georgia Tech's games this weekend.
He was named the ACC Player of the Year last week, and averaged 17.4 points per game and 8.0 rebounds per game this season.
He is also a 39.3% shooter from three point range.

He is isolating because of Covid related issues.

Loyola started out as a 2.5 point favorite and is now a 5 point favorite.
