Syracuse (1-8, 1-7 Atlantic Coast) hosts North Carolina State (6-3, 5-3) Saturday at noon for the final home game of the season. Syracuse hasn’t won a game since it played against Georgia Tech on Sept. 26, and the team is on the verge of its second one-win season since Ben Schwartzwalder took over in 1949. The Wolfpack, however, have multiple ranked wins this season.

Here’s how our beat reporters think Saturday’s contest will play out:

Anthony Dabbundo (7-2)
It’s basketball season
NC State 34, Syracuse 10

The Orange’s road shutout against Louisville felt like a new low this season.
