The Syracuse Orange and Virginia Cavaliers meet Monday in college basketball action at the John Paul Jones Arena.

The Syracuse Orange look for a win after splitting their last six games. The Syracuse Orange are averaging 79.4 points on 45.2 percent shooting and allowing 69.3 points on 39.4 percent shooting. Quincy Guerrier is averaging 16.9 points and 9.6 rebounds while Alan Griffin is averaging 15.7 points and 2.3 assists. Buddy Boeheim is the third double-digit scorer and Joseph Girard III is dishing 4.1 assists. The Syracuse Orange are shooting 32.1 percent from beyond the arc and 78.9 percent from the free thitem line. The Syracuse Orange are allowing 28.6 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 34.5 rebounds per game. 

The Virginia Cavaliers look to build on their six-game winning streak. The Virginia Cavaliers are averaging 72.8 points on 50.5 percent shooting and allowing 59.6 points on 41 percent shooting. Sam Hauser is averaging 14.5 points and 7.4 rebounds while Jay Huff is averaging 13.3 points and one assist. Trey Murphy III is the third double-digit scorer and Kihei Clark is dishing 4.1 assists. The Virginia Cavaliers are shooting 38.9 percent from beyond the arc and 80.4 percent from the free thitem line. The Virginia Cavaliers are allowing 34.6 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 30 rebounds per game.

The Orange are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games. The Cavaliers are 20-7-1 ATS in their last 28 Monday games. The over is 44-18-1 in Orange last 63 road games. The over is 4-0 in Cavaliers last 4 home games. The over is 4-1 in Cavaliers last 5 overall. The road team is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings.

The Virginia Cavaliers are the better team here and executes better on offense, but this is likely going to be a physical, low scoring game where points are hard to come by. Syracuse is top-30 in the country in field goal percentage and three point percentage allowed, while Virginia is sixth in points allowed per game. I’ll grab as many free points I can get in what’s going to be a defensive battle. 

Randy Chambers's Free Pick: Syracuse Orange +6.5
