Papi, on his self-imposed ban PM'd "a miracle"...the guy may be a lot of things but, for sure, he is consistently negative... Well he’s negative when we’re positive and positive when we’re negative. I think his magnetic poles have switched.

actually, it matters what Siena does win or lose 2 games or even split, potential tie-breakers could exist to find their final seeding position, but is also is dependent on what other teams to do as well...…………... There is no road to 1st place without two wins in Buffalo . . . this Siena can control not whether other teams win or lose that stand in our way your not understanding, even with 2 wins, we may not control our FULL destiny...……….cabiche…………………...

Please let me know if Papi is PM'ing people negative- crap - like his top secret Pickett is being recruited by ACC, etc etc- if he starts bothering people, I'll take away his right to PM-- dont forget this is driving Papi crazy, enthusiasm level for Siena hoops is at a 9 year high, and will only continue to grow in the off season- Papi is ready to shoot himself -- too early to spread rumors about Jamion leaving,( trust me that will come next year) so he'll start with players.

I'm pretty sure that the point of SIENA1971's post was that if Siena wins two this weekend, the worst case is that it will be in a three-way tie for first, irrespective of what seed it gets, which will depend on whether either Iona or Rider and possibly Quinnipiac also finish 12-6. It is possible, but not likely, that no one else finishes 12-6. The worst result would be a third seed, since only Quinny and the Iona/Rider winner can get to 12 wins. SIENA1971 does not have a comptehension issue. Capiche?

Capiche? but he didn't post it that way...……...if he wanted to say win 2 and we win a share of the MAAC title no matter what, then fine...…………..but overall, there are many ways that getting seeding can still occur, no one can argue that if you understand the tie-breakers, which won't be known until the final day, and that could include multiple losses by multiple teams...…………...

He’s not disputing that Siena doesn’t control their own destiny at getting the 1 seed. All I’m undyerstanding his point was Siena can only control what Siena does. Therefore Siena must win the Buffalo games to have a shot. Losing those games basically guarantees no first place finish. His only point was Siena can control how they play these two games. Siena can’t worry about what happens with other teams at this point in time. It’s sort of two people basically saying something similar but each is stressing a different point. I believe both of you know what you’re talking about. JMO

I believe if Siena beats Canisius but loses to Niagara they would win the league if Rider beats Iona and loses to Monmouth and Quinnipiac loses out. I'm not sure what happens in that same scenario if Quinnipiac wins one of two.

I'm not sure what happens in that same scenario if Quinnipiac wins one of two. Rider plays at Marist but you're right... Siena, Iona, Rider 3 way at 11-7... Siena is 2-1, Iona 2-2, Rider 1-2. If Q goes 1-1 with everything else - Quinny 1, Iona 2, Siena 3, Rider 4 All of the possibilities this is a hard one to see but it would be fitting in this crazy season in the MAAC.

Well if Rider and St Peter's protect the home court and Siena wins at Canisius we could be looking at some nice scenarios going into Sunday.

I don't see Quinny losing out. Seems like the least likely scenario of all. We just have to pray for 1.

Probably not, but I'm also very content if we can get the 2 seed. and a TIE for the regular season crown is just that, a share or piece of it...…..would be tremendous no matter the final seeding...……..……..no one can take that away from a team picked to finish last......but then again we have to get there first...……..………..

Here’s an idea (but NCAA probably wouldn’t go for it) if the MAAC or any other midmajor conference has a TU’s for regular season first place they should send ALL those toed for first place teams to NIT (except of course one of those tied ends up winning MAAC Tournament). Let’s start that new trend this year.
