Pick

I’m backing Syracuse here. I just think this is a tough game for the Yellow Jackets who are going to be frustrated on the road with the Jim Boeheim 2-3 zone. Syracuse has played their best ball at home and while Georgia Tech’s been a cover machine as of late, I think they’re on borrowed time here and are due for a clunker. Give me Syracuse at home in this one.
