In our opinion from watching most of the games in the Big East this season, Syracuse is the most complete team in this conference. Meanwhile, we strongly feel that Georgetown is one of the most overrated teams in the league. The Hoyas are still in the Top-10 despite losing 6 games this season. One of those losses came at Syracuse, 73-56, in a game that Georgetown led 14-0 to start. The Hoyas rely solely on 3 players to carry the team, while Syracuse can bring guys off the bench and still be just as productive when their starters sit. That’s the difference between these two teams. The Orange play a zone defense, which is the perfect strategy to stop Georgetown considering the Hoyas are don’t have too many guys who can light it up from distance. Coming off a loss to Louisville, the Orange won’t be having a letdown here. Syracuse is 9-0 S.U. & 8-1 ATS in road games this season, a clear sign of an experienced group that doesn’t get rattled on the road. Georgetown is 0-7 ATS (-7.7 Units) after playing a game as a road favorite over the last 2 seasons. Syracuse is 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) in road games versus good teams – outscoring their opponents by 4+ points/game this season. Take Syracuse and the points.
