I, for one, am glad it is back but will have to hear the details before I can really give an opinion. |

I like this arrangement. The game matters to the region, everyone gets their money, UA gets its one home game, we get two at TUC (presumably only one in the season ticket package). I'd rather play it than not and this is better than every other year at SEFCU.

Welcome back, UAlbany Series.
Anybody know the nonconference next season?
This is what I know...
@ Delaware
Vs. St. Bona
Vs. UAlbany
Orlando Invitational in Disney, guaranteed 3 games at least
Vs. Bucknell?
Vs. Army?
Vs. Holy Cross?
Vs. American?
@ Yale?
@ Harvard?
Who else in non-conference?

I think this is very good to bring the game back. The last couple of years have been tough on the teams and fans everywhere.
By next season hopefully it's back to the normal set up and having the UA game should help get people back into it.

It should have never ever been stopped in the first place. Both sides are guilty, I believe Siena could have been more flexible. Too bad it took a pandemic for some positive action by those responsible in each program. What a waste of goodwill thrown away for years. Glad it’s back

glad it is back........but I was always shooting for EVERY year at MVP Arena and NOT part of either schools season ticket package..........first come first served, if you want a truly community game you plan it that way, IMHO.............

Bucknell? Vs. Army? Vs. Holy Cross? Vs. American? @ Yale? @ Harvard? Who else in non-conference? In addition to a home game vs. Army, there should be a game at American. The original deal was four years, with 1 and 4 at home and 2 and 3 on the road. With all non-league games canceled last year, the December 28 game was to be year 2. I'm pretty sure we have to return the Harvard game as well. The last time we played in Orlando, we also had a guarantee game at Purdue, one of the other participants. I would not be surprised if that happened again. If it does, we would only have one game to fill. |

This is very good news. Home and away arrangement makes sense and is fair to both programs. And obviously in addition to most fans wanting this game to be played annually so do the players.
