Michigan basketball has never beaten the Loyola Marymount Lions

  • Overall series record: 0-1
  • First matchup: March 18, 1990
  • Last matchup: March 18, 1990
  • Last Score: Loyola Marymount 149, Michigan 115

There’s only been one matchup between Michigan and Loyola Marymount, and it was a pretty historical matchup for what it’s worth. That game came during the 1990 NCAA Tournament and was a record-setting affair.

In the second round of the Big Dance, Loyola Marymount pulled away with a mind-blowing 149-115 victory, setting the NCAA Tournament scoring record and ending Michigan’s hopes for a repeat title. Jeff Fryer had 41 points, while Bo Kimble added 37 in an amazing performance for the Lions.
