Virginia vs Syracuse Game Preview

Why Virginia Will Win

The offense hasn’t cranked it up yet.

The parts are there. Brennan Armstrong is a good veteran quarterback who has been just okay, but the explosion isn’t there – there’s more this group can do.

It’s going to show up at some point, but it might not need to if the grinding running game can hit the 240-yard mark like it did in two of the first three games.

On the other side, Syracuse might be 3-0, and it might have a passing game now, but the ground attack that was so devastating last season has been just okay.

The Orange D has been awful on third downs, the 30 penalties in three games are too many, and …

CFN Expert Picks, Week 4

Why Syracuse Will Win

Virginia has a big, BIG problem with turnovers.

The eight giveaways spread out over the first three games have been part of the reason why the offense with all the high-powered talent has stalled.

The O line hasn’t been great, third down conversions have been like pulling teeth, and this isn’t the team to be playing against right now if everything isn’t working.

Syracuse is playing with some serious swag. It came out and rocked Louisville, didn’t panic late against Purdue, and it’s getting a hugely efficient passing year out of Garrett Shrader to do along with the running Sean Tucker, who hasn’t gotten going yet.

It also helps that …

What’s Going To Happen

Zero. That’s how many turnovers the Orange have given up so far.

That’s going to change relatively soon – expect two giveaways in this – but the team isn’t giving teams easy chances, and at the moment, Virginia needs them.

At some point the Cavalier offense will start to roll. Syracuse’s offense, though, will set too high a bar in this.

Why Virginia Will Win

The Virginia defense isn’t the NC State defense.

Syracuse was able to go off in the first round win over the Wolfpack, but the rested Cavaliers have the D and the style to slow everything down, play the defensive game this needs to be, and start to make a run.

The Cavaliers rolled 81-58 in the first meeting in late January by shutting down everything from the outside and holding the Orange to just 37% from the field. Virginia got the rebounds and Syracuse didn’t.

Why Syracuse Will Win

It’s Syracuse in the ACC Tournament in need of one more win to lock in an NCAA invite that’s almost certainly already coming. The shooting was lights out – hitting 57% from the field and 48% from three – the defense was able to clamp down enough in the second half to pull away, and the team looked terrific in its third straight win.

Great over the last month, Syracuse is looking and playing the part even when it’s not shooting all that well. There aren’t a ton of turnovers, the D has been amazing against teams from three, and it’s a team that’s trending up in a big, big way at the right time.

What’s Going To Happen

Syracuse might be known for its defense, but Virginia’s is better and the offense doesn’t make the mistakes needed. The Orange are hot, and they’re playing well enough to get on a run and pull this off if Virginia has to keep pushing and doesn’t have control of the tempo.

The Cavaliers will do enough to keep Syracuse from going off from three for a second game in a row, but it’ll be enough of a battle to make this entertaining.
