*CBB(1u): Syracuse -4(-110) @ Boston College–6 PM CT

Syracuse is playing really good basketball at the moment, winning each of their past 3 games by an average of 17.3 PPG. The Cuse score the basketball at will, ranking 13th in offensive efficiency this season and averaging 78.5 PPG. Boston College will try to slow this game down, but with a defense that ranks 155th in defensive efficiency, I have a hard time seeing the Golden Eagles stopping a red hot Syracuse offense. The reason Syracuse is 12-11 falls solely on their defense, which ranks an abysmal 237th in defensive efficiency. However, I’m confident they’ll hold up against a Boston College offense that ranks just 167th in offensive efficiency and runs at one of the slower paces in the country. You need to be able to shoot from deep to beat this Syracuse 2-3 zone; Boston College ranks 314th in 3-point percentage(30.8%). Jim Boeheim’s team appears to be playing their best basketball at the moment, and I see no reason why that doesn’t continue tonight.
