Florida State vs Syracuse Game Preview
Why Florida State Will Win
It’s Week 11. Are you trending up, or are you trending down?
Syracuse was rolling, it gave Clemson all it could handle in a totally acceptable 27-21 win, and then injuries kicked in and everything started to fall apart. The 6-0 start was great, and it’s 0-3 since.
Florida State started hot, lost three straight tough games, and now it’s trending back up with two straight wins with the offense doing a great job and the D doing a fantastic job against the pass.

What’s Going To Happen
Being at home might matter.
Syracuse started out the years of its first eight games in the dome, and now it’s back. Can there be enough energy? Can the home surrounding carry the struggling team through the problems on both lines and with a lack of passing punch lately?
No.
Florida State is too balanced, the passing game has been too sharp, and the defensive front will take over as the game goes on.
