#306 ASA PLAY ON Syracuse +3 over Georgia Tech, Saturday at 12 PM ET - Our power ratings have Cuse as a slight favorite so we like the value with the home team here. Tech steps in with a 2-0 record after beating Florida State in Ireland and then topping Georgia State at home last weekend. Because of those wins this line is off in our opinion. Their 24-21 win over FSU doesn’t look as impressive after the Noles were rolled at home by Boston College last week. Their win last Saturday over Georgia State was nothing great vs a Panther team that lost most of their key players and is working under a brand new coaching staff. GSU had 2 first and goal situations inside the Georgia Tech 3 yard line and came away with just 3 points. Syracuse topped a solid Ohio team, one of the top teams in the MAC, at home last week 38-22. We were a little concerned by their rush defense in that win, but the offense looked very solid with nearly 500 total yards. New starting QB McCord, former Ohio State starter, threw for 354 yards and 4 TD’s. He should look good on Saturday vs a GT defense that faced 2 poor passing QB’s in their first 2 games. Last year this ACC match up was played @ Georgia Tech, because of injuries the Orange had to start a tight end at QB, and the line was -6.5 in favor of the host (Tech won by 9). Now the line has shifted only 3 points and Cuse will be at home and actually playing one of the better signal callers in the ACC at QB. GT has won only 14 of last 44 road games dating back to 2015 and they are just 2-9 ATS as RF during that same span. We like Syracuse at home as a dog.
