Syracuse is a much more talented team than Holy Cross who have lost a lot of talent this season and are a shell of their former self. They were much better last season but they are going to be outclassed in this one with a Syracuse team that will want to run up the score, and who are off an upset loss at home to Stanford. Against FCS teams, Syracuse has put up at least over 60 points in their last three games against teams like that and they are at home. McCord will get to work in what should be a one sided affair.

Best bet: lay the points with Syracuse.
