TOM STRYKER’S FREE COLLEGE BASKETBALL SELECTION MONDAY, MARCH 4TH
#864 SYRACUSE (+) over Virginia at 7 PM EST
Off a huge 25-point blowout win at Wake Forest, Syracuse will be champing at the bit when Virginia comes to town. Last year, the Orangemen battled the Cavaliers twice and lost both games by finals of 68-61 and 59-44. In this “Senior Night” setting, the ‘Cuse won’t be denied. Let’s take a look inside the numbers.
When playing with revenge of any kind, the Orange have been worth a wager posting a proud 18-10-1 ATS record in their last 29 lined games. Also, when priced as a single-digit underdog and matched up against an opponent that holds a team won/loss percentage of .801 or better, the Syracuse has been a cash cow inking a tremendous 44-27-1 ATS mark including a juicy 29-15-1 ATS provided its opponent hits the hardwood off a SU and ATS victory. Finally, in last home game settings, head coach Jim Boeheim’s boys own a respectable 12-3 SU and ATS mark in their last 15 tries including a golden 8-0 SU and ATS provided they enter off a straight up win.
Respect is certainly given to a Virginia team that owns a solid 27-1 SU and 21-7 ATS record in its last 28 games when priced as a single-digit favorite. However, when playing versus an opponent on their Senior Night, UVA sports a soft 7-13 SU and 6-14 ATS mark including 0-4 SU and ATS in its last four in this situation provided the Cavs arrive off the comforts of a home game. In addition, since 1991, ACC road favorites that are matched up against a conference foe hold a timid 36-57-2 ATS record provided their opponent is competing in their last home game. If our “play against” guest hits the hardwood off two or more straight up wins, this technical situation falls to an ugly 11-33-1 ATS including 8-32 ATS in this set if they are going into revenge.
Battle tested and ready considering this will the ‘Cuse’s fourth game against a ranked opponent in their last five games, Coach Boeheim’s kids will dig deep and pick up this massive upset victory. Take Syracuse. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
