Syracuse vs. Florida State Prediction and Odds for ACC Tournament Second Round (Back the Seminoles to Advance)
By Matt De Saro
The Syracuse Orange picked the wrong time to have an implosion, but that is exactly what happened against the 22-9 Miami Hurricanes in their last game.
Syracuse, as a 1.5 point favorite at home, blew an 11-point halftime lead and eventually lost by three. It was a total meltdown and left a big of a stain on the season for Jim Boheim and company.
Cuse will try to turn their fortunes around on Wednesday morning when they face off against the Florida State Seminoles in their opening round of the ACC Tournament. While much isn't expected from either program, in the long run, this could be a thrilling opening-round matchup.

Syracuse vs. Florida State Prediction and Pick
The spread for this game has been a bit up and down. Syracuse actually opened as slight favorites but was quickly beaten down to 1.5 point underdogs. This is the third time these two teams will face off this year with both the previous games being won by the away team.
Overall, I think that the Seminoles are playing better ball right now and are on a three-game SU and ATS win streak. Now, this streak was preceded by an 0-9 ATS losing streak. But, the past is the past and It seems that the Seminoles got hot at the right time. At least if they want to get past the first round.
Syracuse, on the other hand, is on a four-game SU losing streak and is 1-7 ATS in their last eight games. It’s too bad I didn’t get to this game when FSU were underdogs but I’m still happy to take them -1.5.
Pick: Florida State -1.5 (-110)
