Syracuse vs Florida State Betting Preview
Last season, NC State parlayed a magical five-game run through the ACC Tournament into a Final Four run in the NCAA Tournament. Duke has been the story in the ACC all season, but is there a darkhorse team that can make a Wolfpack-style run in the conference tournament?
If there is, our money is on Florida State. NC State was 17-14 after the regular season last year and the Wolfpack entered the ACC Tournament on a four-game losing streak.
Florida State enters the ACC Tournament with a record of…17-14. The ACC Tournament will serve as a going-away party for Leonard Hamilton, who announced his retirement earlier this season.
The Seminoles rewarded their coach with a strong win over SMU to close the regular season. Why is that important? a) Good vibes; b) If Florida State gets past Syracuse in the opening round, the Seminoles would play SMU on Wednesday.
With Duke being on the opposite side of the bracket, Florida State’s path to a couple early wins has plenty of appeal.
These teams met in Tallahassee in January with Florida State earning a 90-74 home win over the Orange. The Seminoles also won last year’s meeting by 16 points at Syracuse. This is a tough matchup for the Orange because of their turnover woes.
In the 18-team ACC, Syracuse is No. 17 in turnover rate. In conference play, the Orange are turning the ball over on 18.7-percent of their possessions.
In their first meeting this season, Florida State won the turnover battle 15-9. Syracuse has lost its opening round game of the ACC Tournament each of the last two years.
Syracuse vs Florida State Predictions
The Orange went 2-12 straight-up in games played away from home this season with those two wins coming at Boston College (who didn’t qualify for the ACC Tournament) and Cal (13-18 overall; 6-14 ACC). Look for the Seminoles to take care of business in Saturday’s marquee matchup in Charlotte.
Syracuse vs Florida State Prediction: Florida State -2.5
