Home opener at the TUC with a noon tip-off on Saturday. Hopefully Siena will come out strong and win their fourth straight game. It is very important to establish a home court advantage especially with the tournament in Albany this season (and next). Using Sagarin - Siena would be favored by 12 points against the Greyhounds. Loyola comes in at 1-4 with a win at UMBC and losses to St. Bonaventure, Stony Brook, Tennessee State and Long Island. Loyola is scoring 72 PPG and giving up almost 77 PPG on average. Siena won last year in Baltimore, 81-71. www.sienasaints.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/112715aaa.htmlLoyola starters: A. Walker 6'0 (So.) 12.4 PPG, 4 RPG, 5 APG T. Hubbard 6'2 (Sr.) 16 PPG - 53% from 3 J. Jones 6'7 (Sr.) 15.6 PPG, 8.2 RPG E. Laster 6'6 (Sr.) 8.8 PPG F. Rassman 6'10 (Sr.) 10.6 PPG, 4 RPG This is a veteran team who starts four seniors (all JP's recruits). While I expect Siena to win this game we aren't in a position to coast against ANYONE. Loyola will come in motivate against their former coach and they have some guys who can light it up like Hubbard, Walker and Jones. Siena needs to continue to make hay on the glass and limit the turnovers which has really plagued us so far this year. Prediction: Siena 74 Loyola 66

I hope the early start and smaller crowd doesn't have them flat.
100% pick saints win today in the contest.

Anyone worried about our turnovers and FG% defense yet?
