The Syracuse Orange and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets meet in college basketball action from the McCamish Pavilion on Saturday afternoon. Let's dive into the odds, injuries, matchup history and make a prediction for this game.
Syracuse is listed as a 1.5-point road favorite with an attached ML price of -120. The total for this game is set at 141 points.
Peter Carey was ruled out for the season for Syracuse last week with a knee injury while Jordan Meka is out indefinitely for Georgia Tech with an illness.
Syracuse won the lone meeting last year in overtime by a final score of 74-73, making it 3 wins in the last 4 meetings for the Orange.
Syracuse is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Saturday games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS win while the over is 8-3 in their last 11 road games. Georgia Tech is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall while the over is 4-0 in their last 4 games against a team with a winning record.
I'm sticking with Syracuse here. The Orange are just the better team and Georgia Tech just hasn't really had anything go right over the course of conference play. If we were getting a few more points, maybe I could be talked into Georgia Tech as some of these meetings have been close, but with the line so close to a pick 'em, I have to back Syracuse here.
Chris Ruffolo's Free Pick: Syracuse -1.5
