The Siena Saints are probably the better, more talented team and should be laying a decent number here, but there’s not much that’s going to intimidate a ridiculously experienced Albany Great Danes side. Albany has just two freshmen on its roster, and this team can shoot the hell out of the outside shot. The Siena Saints may win, but the Great Danes won’t back down and can hang around. Give me the points.
