Lots of discussion on this board over this year's non-conference schedule, which, although weaker than many other seasons, still comes with its share of challenges. Strictly gut prognostication, I think that UMASS will end the season with the strongest resume out of any other Siena opponent (in terms of RPI, KenPom, etc). So, here's the question: How do you feel that Siena has to start the season off with this challenging opponent on the road?
Have a nice holiday weekend, everyone.

Catch them early. I still believe this is a winnable game (even in the road).
Unless some one else voted Good, catch them earily; I think I accidentally voted for it twice. Oops.

Great, now the results are COMPLETELY invalid! I may have forgot to mark that you can only choose one response, if so that's my fault. My mind's already on long weekend mode.

I said other--- I like umass as a great first game--- if it's a win the fan base and the team should be pumped up. If they lose it will give the kids a dose of reality right away. With the tepid expectations this is a win win game in my mind.

Good season opener. They will be a pretty big underdog, barring a blow out loss, Siena can gain confidence with this game. In the first game you never know what to expect. Look at some of the results in the first week of college football. Big favorites struggle and even lose early on in the season.
