Game 10: Siena vs. Buffalo
Overview: The Saints look to bounce back from their loss to Pitt by taking on the Bulls tonight in Albany.
Injury Note: Siena junior Cory Magee (concussion) could possibly play for the first time this season. Magee, who is listed as questionable, is still recovering from a preseason injury, but has practiced on and off for almost a week now.
Prediction: Siena 76, Buffalo 68 (My Siena record is 7-2)
Buffalo has beaten Temple, who beat Tennessee, which beat Siena.
The Bulls also lost to #2 Connecticut by four points, whereas the Saints lost to #3 Pittsburgh.
Siena has won 17 of its last 19 non-conference home games and are 4-0 at home this season.
Records: Siena 5-4. Buffalo 5-3
The Series: Siena leads the all-time series 6-3. Buffalo won the only matchup when both clubs were at Division I level, two years ago, 69-64.
Player to Watch: Rodney Pierce, junior Buffalo. Pierce started in the MAAC at Rider and sat out last season due to transferring back home to Buffalo. Pierce has already scored a game-high 28 points against the No. 2 Huskies in a game on Dec. 4. Pierce is the Bulls' leading scorer and he was be guarded tonight by Kenny Hasbrouck. Should be a good matchup and could determine who wins.
