Syracuse basketball is looking to win six in a row vs the Clemson Tigers. Here are the full crystal ball predictions for this game + top x-factors to watch.
Syracuse basketball is one of the hottest teams in all of college basketball. After an uneven start to the season, the Orange have won five in a row and have potentially changed the tide of its season.
On Tuesday night Syracuse will put its undefeated conference road streak on the line (4-0) vs the Clemson Tigers. The orange and purple are barely above .500 (10-9) and are sub .500 in the ACC (4-5).
It’s been an odd year for Clemson. On one hand, they’ve beaten No. 3 Duke which is super impressive. But on the other hand, they somehow lost to Yale! Odd to say the least.
The experts consider this Syracuse vs Clemson game a coin flip proposition. The ESPN BPI Analytics barely lean towards the Tigers (55.6 percent) and Vegas also shares that sentiment with Clemson being a 1.5 point favorite at home.
This is the legitimate definition of a trap game. With Syracuse red hot (winners of five in a row) it’d be easy for them to look ahead to a primetime matchup vs the Duke Blue Devils on Saturday in the dome at 8:00 p.m.
