Stonehill vs Syracuse Prediction
In this Stonehill vs Syracuse Prediction, Syracuse is coming as -24.5 home favorites. Syracuse has been the far better team this season, as they have a better overall record and have been almost perfect at home, while Stonehill has been winless on the road. Syracuse has been struggling against the spread lately, as they are 1-6 ATS in its last 7 games, but they have a top-30 defense in the nation and are going up against a bottom-100 offense in Stonehill, so I expect them to win this one rather comfortably. Take Syracuse and lay the points at home.
