Syracuse, N.Y. -- The Syracuse men's basketball team opened as a six-point underdog for its game on Saturday against No. 23 Florida State, according to the website VegasInsider.com. The game will tip-off at 2 p.m. in the Donald Tucker Center.
Both teams come into the game struggling and in need of a win. The Orange (12-5, 1-3 ACC) has lost all three times it's been an underdog this season. Syracuse has also lost three consecutive games. The Seminoles (12-4, 1-3) have won just one of their past four games, although they have faced an exceptionally difficult gauntlet of teams over that stretch including Duke, North Carolina, Miami and Louisville.
