Syracuse vs Georgia Tech Prediction
Since 2022, Syracuse is 6-2 ATS as a double-digit underdog, so I did consider the points. However, Syracuse hasn’t played a lick of defense during its 3-game losing streak and is now going up against a great Georgia Tech quarterback and a team that’s humming on both sides of the ball. If Duke, SMU, and Pitt could have its way with Syracuse, the Yellow Jackets should be no different. Since 2024, Georgia Tech is 4-1-1 ATS as a double-digit home favorite. I question if Syracuse has the defensive effort to hang around given what we’ve seen over the last month. I’ll lay the points with Georgia Tech.
