Despite the Rex factor Siena 78 UA 77 Hoping Friday shows up maybe the kid picked up a bit of confidence after LVille. Also want to see less Fisher (we know what is) and more Camper (he can’t be worse it’s not possible). No Vegas line on this game because the AE is low-major so using Sagarin UA is favored by 5 over Siena and that includes the home court. Best thing for Siena would Patsos getting tossed and Manning leading the team to victory.

It's a no win situation. I'm showing up hoping for a good game and a Siena win. This is my plan as well. Be there hope for the win. DVR the game and review later.

It's a no win situation. I'm showing up hoping for a good game and a Siena win. That is called a 'VERY BIG WIN' situation. Much more risk involved during the Fran years - THAT was close to a NO-WIN situation. While many tried to minimize the importance of this game over the years (on both sides) , I am of the opinion that is a VERY big game. Local rivalries among mid-majors are huge for both schools and the area.

I certainly hope Siena wins, Shoe is on the other foot for UA, it would be should be considered an upset if the Saints win. This program under the current tutelage is going no where, not even maintaining mediocracy.

No pressure on Siena. This game was always gut wrenching when we were elite now with UA the top dog all the pressure is on them. This is the first year they should win (Maybe so-so's first year) easily on paper. Last year Siena was a favorite at SEFCU and choked badly. That said upsets can happen in rivalry games so let's hope Siena can somehow pull it out.

Weather is going to kill attendance today. Just got home and roads are awful. Live TV is sounding real good right now...even though that option never influences attendance 😂

And so does when it’s too hot, too cold, football games on, religious holiday vacations, UA game on, weekday game, weekend early game, etc. 😜 If you want to build a program’s fan base I think live tv coverage is a must and it’s a net positive.

Am I wrong to be annoyed that Sammy isn't starting in this game? Was that just too big a leap to expect?
