Details

We find clear value on Northern Illinois. The market prices Northern Illinois at decimal 7.00 (implied win probability 14.29%). From the provided research Loyola Chicago are 1-4 with poor recent shooting (team FG% near mid-30s) while Northern Illinois is 2-2 with more efficient scoring (leading scorers showing higher FG%). There is also venue ambiguity in the sources indicating Gentile Arena, which would favor Northern Illinois and suggests the market may be overstating Loyola's edge. Conservatively estimating Northern Illinois' true win probability at 30.0% (0.30) produces a required fair decimal price of 3.333; the available 7.00 line substantially exceeds that, yielding a large positive edge (EV = 0.30 * 7.00 - 1 = 1.10). Even if our probability estimate is optimistic, the market would have to more than halve our probability (to ~14%) to remove value. We therefore recommend backing the away side at current prices.
