Syracuse basketball will play its final regular-season game vs Miami on Saturday. Here are our full predictions + preview of top x-factors.

After a long and arduous 2019-20 campaign, it all comes to a regular-season conclusion for the Syracuse basketball team vs Miami on Saturday afternoon at the Watsco Center.

The Orange are 17-13 overall and 10-9 in the ACC so far this season. Syracuse has won three out of its last four games and are looking to build some momentum and secure their seeding in the conference tournament next week.

While the Hurricanes are slumping after losing three straight games. Miami is a game under .500 overall at 14-15 and sits at 6-13 in ACC play.

This game is considered a 50-50 contest. The ESPN BPI Analytics barely gives the Orange the edge (50.8 percent chance of winning). While Vegas leans towards Syracuse with a -1 point edge.

Both the Orange and the Hurricanes are unlikely to make the big dance unless they win the ACC Tournament, which makes this a very interesting game.

Here are our full crystal ball predictions and a preview of the top x-factors for this pivotal ACC contest.
