Loyola Marymount Lions vs Troy Trojans prediction, odds and best bet for Nov. 10

Game time: November 10, 2026 at 7:00 PM ET

Venue: Trojan Arena — Troy, AL

Article updated Nov 9, 10:42 PM EST

By SportsJaw Editorial Team

Loyola Marymount is the pick to beat Troy, 76-74, on November 10. Zion Sensley’s early scoring and rebounding offer the strongest reason to favor the Lions against a team coming off a difficult night on the glass. The edge is narrow, however, and Loyola Marymount -1.5 (-108) offers too little cushion for an actionable wager. The official recommendation is Pass.

Loyola Marymount Lions vs Troy Trojans prediction and best bet

Loyola Marymount gets a slight nod because Sensley has supplied scoring and rebounding through its first two games. His production gives the Lions a plausible way to exploit Troy’s most recent weakness, but one poor rebounding performance by the Trojans is not enough to predict control of the glass.

The game forecast favors LMU; the best betting decision is Pass. A projected two-point victory sits too close to Loyola Marymount -1.5 (-108) to justify a spread wager with low confidence. Troy’s home setting and Donovan Oday’s productive opening performance leave a credible path to a different result.

Loyola Marymount Lions outlook

Troy Athletics reports that Sensley is averaging 21.0 points and 9.5 rebounds through LMU’s first two games. He recorded 20 points and 13 rebounds in the November 6 win over Lincoln (Calif.). Those contributions make him central to this forecast, although two appearances are a short foundation for projecting sustained production.

The Lions opened with a 96-95 loss to Queens (N.C.) before beating Lincoln 102-50. The Queens result is the main concern when considering whether LMU can win a close road game: the Lions scored 95 and still lost. The Lincoln victory was emphatic, but its margin alone says little about how this matchup will unfold.

LMU’s outlook therefore rests on Sensley maintaining useful production while the team delivers a more restrained defensive result than it managed against Queens. That is a reasonable forecast, with considerable room for error.

Troy Trojans outlook

Troy lost 91-68 at Florida State on November 6, shooting 23-for-55, or 41.8%, and finishing behind 46-21 in rebounds. The rebounding deficit deserves attention, but it should not be treated as a guaranteed repeat against a different opponent.

Oday offers a meaningful counterargument to an LMU pick. Troy Athletics credits him with 21 points, 12 rebounds and six steals against UMass on November 2. That performance shows why Sensley’s individual numbers cannot simply be converted into an assumed Lions advantage across the entire matchup.

Caden Diggs and Sam Walters each scored 11 points against Florida State. All seven of Walters’ field-goal attempts were threes. Troy also returned three players and added 12 newcomers, making last season’s team a limited guide to this roster.

Key matchup factors

Rebounding is the clearest area to watch, rather than a settled advantage. Sensley’s early work makes it a reason to lean toward LMU. Oday’s 12-rebound outing supplies a reason to expect Troy could respond. Neither individual performance tells us which team will consistently generate second chances.

The prior meeting adds context without carrying much predictive weight. Troy’s preview says LMU won 74-63 during the 2025-26 season, the programs’ only previous meeting. With substantial turnover on Troy’s roster, that result should have little influence on the current spread decision.

For Troy, turning Walters’ perimeter opportunities into points is one possible route to changing the forecast. His shot selection identifies an avenue for scoring, not proof of a shooting advantage.

Loyola Marymount Lions vs Troy Trojans spread prediction

Spread recommendation: Pass on Loyola Marymount -1.5 (-108) and Troy +1.5 (-112). The projected LMU victory would narrowly cover, but the margin is too fragile to make the favorite an official play.

Troy’s poor night at Florida State is the strongest argument for laying the points. Oday’s earlier production and LMU’s loss despite scoring 95 are substantial reasons for caution. Taking Troy’s points is not compelling either: the projection has the Trojans losing by two. Neither side offers a convincing cushion at these prices.

Loyola Marymount Lions vs Troy Trojans total prediction

Total recommendation: Pass on Over 148.5 (-110) and Under 148.5 (-110). The projected 150 points land slightly above the line, but that small difference is not a dependable betting edge.

LMU’s results illustrate the uncertainty: its games finished with 191 and 152 combined points despite very different scoring distributions. Troy’s Florida State game totaled 159. Those results warrant considering the Over, but three outcomes against other opponents are not enough to make it the selection. The forecast leaves both total directions as passes.

Loyola Marymount Lions vs Troy Trojans Projected Score & Betting Picks

Game forecast: Loyola Marymount 76, Troy 74. Sensley’s scoring and rebounding tilt the prediction toward the Lions. Troy’s strongest counterargument is Oday’s demonstrated ability to contribute in several areas, particularly if the Trojans improve their team rebounding.

Confidence: low. The forecast calls for a close LMU win without assuming a decisive possession advantage. Official SportsJaw wager: Pass. Both the spread and total are too close to the projection to warrant a bet.
