Syracuse vs Pittsburgh Picks & Props
SYR vs PITT Picks
NCAAF PicksThe first-half Under has cashed in eight of Syracuse's previous 11 games, and Pittsburgh will establish the run early in this game because it gave up seven sacks against the Orange last year.
The Orange have more experience on defense, and their head coach, Fran Brown, has a defensive pedigree. The Under has cashed in seven of the last eight Syracuse-Pittsburgh meetings.
Syracuse is my top pick (down to +8.5) because its talent composite score at 247sports.com ranks 37th nationally, compared to the Pittsburgh Panthers, which rank 61st, and Orange QB Steve Angeli should bounce back from a poor outing vs. California last week. Syracuse averaged 38.3 points per game (PPG) with Angeli under center last year and 11.1 PPG in the eight games after he got hurt.
The Under correlates with the underdog, and since Pittsburgh is the favorite, it'll probably dictate the game's flow. Given Pitt's slow pace and the Orange's mistakes last week, they might spend the first quarter figuring each other out.
