The Siena–Albany rivalry, also known as the Albany Cup, is a College basketball rivalry between the Siena Saints and the Albany Great Danes. With the two campuses separated by 8 miles (12.87 km), it is one of the geographically closest rivalries in NCAA Division I. While the first meeting between the two schools occurred in 1940, the game between the two schools became a yearly event starting in 2001 with both teams in Division I.^[2]

Until the 2016 game, which was played at UAlbany's SEFCU Arena, all games between the two rival schools had been contested at the Times Union Center (formerly the Pepsi Arena until 2007), which is normally Siena's home arena.^[3] This caused a brief war of words between the coaches of both teams (Jimmy Patsos of Siena and Will Brown of Albany) in the run-up to that contest.^[4]
