Sunday a few miles to Canisius. Griffs are -5' and 133. As Cindy said in another post, 'consistently inconsistent". It seems with every game we have no idea who shows. Bland and Reid 1-14 or Bland and Reid 9-14. I do think SP will be at full strength. I kinda thought the Griffs may be favored by 7. The play at Niagara changed that. Mason, in my opinion, is a better coach than 'spoon. It's always a bidniz trip to Buffalo and I think these guys are on a mission. Huge momentum swing if SP wins. I do have a question, do the Griffs press? As always , Go Peacocks!

Reggie has never been one of the coaches who use the press a lot . And ,watching the Quinny game Friday he used it seldom . Because of two injuries , he is basically playing a 7 man rotation and his 2 most important guys played 35 minutes or so on Friday . Thus would be surprised if we see the tactic that drives us crazy thus far unless he is forced too . Hope that is the case . Niagara' non-use if it in first half was another sign of their coach's weakness and/or scouting .Hopefully , as the season progresses we will get better at getting the ball in against it and ,more importantly , learn how to make some easy scores against it with better ball handling and better tactics to getting it up court quickly ; that would discourage its use by number of MAAC coaches who do employ it a lot and have the depth to do that . But Griffs do shoot the three really well almost across the board , and pass and move really well on the offensive end .

Great to see. They are all good to go. What's interesting is that Diahame was dressed. I didn't see him participating but hopefully is a good sign. Go Peacocks!

Sow hurt or buried?
Regardless, Oumar’s return would be a huge upgrade on the defensive end in the middle.
0-7 from three. This game is begging to be stolen….. if we could make a few shots.

Great bidniz trip 2-0 in the MAAC. It's too bad SP can't go right into MAAC play. 2 toughies coming up in Duquesne and UMBC. The Canisius game was HUGE. I think SP was down 39-33. I told you 'Spoon isn't a very good coach. Looks like he is going to sleep on the bench. These guys played hard and rose to the occasion. New sheriff in the MAAC folks.
BTW, Siena was boat raced. Rider losing. Crazy MAAC. Go Peacocks!

Zone really frustrated Canisius causing many shot clock violations and empty trips. I don’t recall us playing much zone in previous games.
