Start time is later than usual on a weeknight. Would be nice to see back to back wins.

Siena is -9. Should be an easy one for Jimbo.
Siena is a impressive 0-6 ATS as a favorite.

Home court is key here. It's not so much the opponent as it is back-to-back conference home games when the team is trying to find their identity and struggling mightily on the road. They will be heading on the road to try and pull off an upset on Sunday after this. It is critical they get this game tonight. If they lose this one then I would consider this to be the worst loss of the season. This should go the Saints way and I think they can create some early separation and hold off Quinnipiac. I suspect that Quinnipiac will win the battle of the boards, but Siena needs to keep Quis at PG and use his court smarts to get the ball to Brett and JO when they are open (please don't force the ball inside ALL the time). If they get some good looks inside early it will a) limit rebound opportunities for Quinnipiac and b) keep the Saints from falling in love with the 3-ball. Quinnipiac is not a great defensive team so there are hole to exploit and they have not shown to be that good on the road. More good news... kind of... both teams will be hitting a lot of rim on the free throws. I don't see the game being decided by free throws. I have a weird feeling of confidence about this game - more so than any other this year. I think Siena wins this 80-68. This is a game I'd like to see Nico get some swagger back.

...the apathy is palpable.
Back-to-back wins would be a nice thing. I'd like to see Kadeem Smithen prove himself as a reliable guard option with another decent showing tonight. Hopefully the boys show up.
Go Saints!

If they aren't pumped up for this one, than when will they be. Home game, going for their first two wins in a row, and they know they have to start displaying some cohesiveness. I hope JK is right. A 12 point win sounds great! Of course I'll take one any way we get it! See you there. GO SAINTS!!

Not the same player mentally physically or in attitude Think the knees acting up? Don't know, was sixth man award player last year. The knee set him back, he's not the same player. Siena playing SLOPPY and another drought... better clean it up |

Nico went to check in, had an earring in and couldn't get it out in time. That pissed JP off. He immediately put in Shivers instead.
Nico finally enters, jacks up two bricks. Turns it over on an inbounds. He was never seen again.
