Here's hoping we got many of our guys healthy and ready for the game today! Long 4 week layoff - hope we can get back on track and get the win at home! Fairfield will be ready and chomping at the bit after the home loss the other night.
GO SAINTS!!

Fairfield looked good early in the season vs Providence. We'll have our hands full.

If we have our hands full with Fairfield at home then this is going to be a long forgettable season. Only teams Siena shouldn't beat by double digits at home are Iona and Monmouth.

Lots of ice already and sleet/freezing rain. Careful if you're heading to the arena,

Not sure why you would say that. I think that's expecting way too much, esp in this environment. We didn't beat FF by double digits in 2009 or 2010 (by 2) at home. Conference games are not easy.

Those were Ed Cooley teams, much better than this Fairfield team. I will take a win however we can get it but would love to see that this team made strides over the break and can actually put together 40 minutes and control the game. Blowing that Manhattan game still stings.

Blowing that Manhattan game still stings. I just think double digit conf wins are expecting WAY too much now. This FF team beat Seton Hall on the road, plus swept the western Buffalo road trip which is always difficult. Sure, strides will be nice, but also rusty. Can't deny that.

I think that it will be a tough game, especially since our top scorer has just gotten over COVID and the team hasn’t practiced much.

Line up to FF -3.5. Sidewalks around arena are treacherous if not treated as well as the roads. Be safe.
Over under on actual attendance 500?

College basketball is getting unwatchable with the officiating. Stop rewarding the flop!
