Loyola Marymount -7.5 against Queens, and the line keeps climbing.

Loyola Marymount opens at home as a -7.5 favorite over Queens, and the market isn't shy about it. The moneyline sits at -362 for the Lions, with the market probability, margin removed, at 74% Loyola Marymount, 26% Queens. That's a clear price for a team that hasn't played a game yet against one that already has a win.

Queens has the only real tape: 1-0, scoring 103.0 points per game while allowing 98.0. That's a team that plays fast and puts points on the board. The Royals' best argument is simple: they've done it, and they can score. A +7.5 line gives them room if that pace travels.

Loyola Marymount's case is the market itself. The spread moved from -5.5 to -7.5, and the total jumped from 158 to 161.5. That's respect for the Lions at home, even with an 0-0 record. The moneyline moved from -385 to -362, which tells you sharp money is on Queens, but the spread still went the other way. The Lions are the side the number likes.
