If we beat Monmouth twice can we simply switch rankings?

10 games vs teams on this list. 6-4 would be good.

6 of the 10 are on the road and 1 is in Glens Falls, not a true home court advantage. 7-3 would be very good.

And then go about 15-3 against everyone else! Turns out this non-conference schedule could be pretty good - just not at home.

This season needs to start fast. I have nothing left to analyze.

Road wins will boost our end of season RPI, etc - 8&5 would be awesome

Depends if you're 1 - 3 against Iona and Monmouth you're probably finishing 3rd or 4th ( because we will probably drop at least another 3 or 4) so it depends who you lose to...we haven't been good vs the best of the MAAC, that's gonna determine how the season plays out 13 and 7 ain't gonna do it, I'm thinking the MAAC winner goes 15-5 maybe 16-4 (if someone gets on a roll), 12 or 13 wins will get you anywhere from 3rd thru 5th.

I guess we won't call you an optimist then will we?

I guess we won't call you an optimist then will we? Where in that post did I say anything about how I thought Siena would finish? I posted nothing that was optimistic or pessimistic. I merely said you have to do better than 250 vs Iona and Monmouth and that I thought the winner of the MAAC would have 15 maybe possibly 16 wins if they got hot. I do suspect we will lose 3 games to teams not named Iona and Monmouth. What we do against Iona and Monmouth will determine where we finish.

"Depends if your 1 - 3 against Iona and Monmouth your probably finishing 3rd or 4th" That's a pessimistic comment to me, even if you're simply stating one possible outcome. An optimist would even consider that outcome.

Im not expecting to finish worst than 2nd. I'm an optimist.

Those 4 games are going to play an important part and probably dictate where we finish. Nothing more nothing less.
