Preview: Nicollet vs. Loyola

Loyola and Nicollet are set to face off this Friday at 7:00 PM. Both teams have had struggles on the defensive side of the ball, with Nicollet giving up an average of 32.33 points per game and Loyola allowing an average of 36.

Last game was the first rocky defensive outing for Loyola this year. It simply didn't have it last week, losing 66 - 26 to St. Mary's.

Meanwhile, Nicollet crushed West Lutheran last week, winning 48 - 6. Nicollet's offense might have been extra motivated to turn things around after difficulties scoring in its previous game.

Loyola's defeat and Nicollet's win put them both at 1-2. A win for Loyola would reverse both its bad luck and Nicollet's good luck. We'll see if Loyola manages to pull off that tough task or if Nicollet keeps its momentum going instead.
