Season starts Friday, Nov 13th so you got a few days to compile your data before making your picks. A little twist this year to determine a winner if it goes down to a tiebreaker. Don't let it scare you. Good luck!

If it's a Mark Thomas Men's Apparel necktie game-worn by Mitch, I'm going to be very upset. But seriously, that's very generous of you.

I haven't completed my picks yet, although it's easy 30-1. I'm having difficulty with the margin of victory in a few of the picks. I should be all set before tip off Friday night.

A word about the grading... obviously, most Siena outcomes picked correctly wins.
Should the tiebreaker come into play, that is, a tie for most winners, the least accumulated total points off the Margin of Victory (MOV) at the end of the season will be declared the winner.
Let x = actual MOV by the winning team Let y = projected MOV by the player
If player picks the Siena outcome correctly, the MOV is the absolute value of the difference between the actual and the selected number by the player. ABS(x - y) Ex: Final Score: Duke 90 Siena 66 (MOV = 24) Player selects Siena (L) with MOV of 24 Player receives a W ... MOV = 0 ..... (1-0) 0
If the player picks the wrong Siena outcome, the MOV becomes the sum of the actual and the player's projected number. (x + y) Ex: Final Score: Siena 86 Loyola MD 75 (MOV = 11) Player selects Siena (L) with MOV of 2 Player receives a L ... MOV = 13 ..... (0-1) 13

Quit procrastinating...... Mine are in. Here's a sneak peak: 20-11 overall (14-6 MAAC) Siena will be 8-4 at Christmas. A few more bonus predictions: Siena will finish second Three out of four of Long, Wright, Bisping, JO will make an all-MAAC team Nico will be MAAC ROY, Wormley all rookie-team team selection Siena will go 12-2 at home Jimmy will "only" get 7 technical fouls this year Siena will win MAAC tournament over Iona after losing both regular season meetings. Siena gets a 14 seed beats Maryland a 3 which makes Kevin Huerter re-consider his decision for at least 10 minutes. The round of 32 once again gets Siena as #6 Butler defeats the Saints. Iona loses in the NIT to Iowa and Fran McCaffery. Stony Brook finally beats Albany. As they say - print that shit! Man, that's a lot to take in, I was challenged to just pick the regular schedule.

Good thing I waited to make my picks. Now that Evan's back I'll be able to increase the margin of victory (points) over Duke.

I'll go under on all. If you win 3 out of 4 you win either all session pass for maac or season ticket for next season your choice. If I win you buy beers for me at one maac tournament session.

Yeah I won’t do a game by game prediction - this year is especially tough after 1st two games, Siena can pretty much win or lose every game on schedule. At this point no telling how quick Nico and Kenny will adjust to D1 ball the faster the better. Like to see at least 12-8 MAAC record preferable 13-7 and 20 wins going into MAAC tournament – but depending on coaching and how fast freshmen develop, we could be looking 17 to 21 wins going into MAAC tournament
The non conf schedule is not very tough after 1st two games, we play Bonnies and Hofstra at home and not buying Jimmy’s B/S on Albany and Vermont- been over this a million times MAAC contenders beat AE teams like a drum – Jimmy basically needs to turn the corner and make Siena a contender- no excuses or B/S this year

C'mon Tony, take a shot at picking all the games, its one way to see how confident people are in the Saints. 17-21 wins will be common but I'm interested in seeing the game by game predictions and by how many points, put it out there, its all a guessing game, see how you rate against board members.

Picks are in. Here's hoping that I'm wrong on at least 10 of my picks.
