Miami vs Syracuse Preview and Best Bet – 11/30/2024

There are massive ACC championship and College Football Playoff implications on Saturday in the Miami vs Syracuse matchup. Miami needs a win both to make the ACC championship game and keep its playoff hopes alive, while a loss would ruin both of those things for them. Miami is a 10.5-point favorite going into this matchup, while oddsmakers have set the total for the game at 67.5 points. Continue reading to get our college football picks for this huge contest in the ACC.

Miami Facing Do Or Die Scenario In Syracuse

The Miami Hurricanes are 10-1 this season and 6-1 in the ACC. But all of the good things they’ve done this year will be for naught if they lose on the road against Syracuse on Saturday. Unfortunately for the Hurricanes, they have seen each of their last three road games come down to the wire, including a loss in their most recent road game against Georgia Tech. Miami’s defense has been a question mark all season long and it could be one against Kyle McCord and a potent Syracuse passing attack in this must-win matchup.

Syracuse Looks For Third Straight Win

Syracuse has won two games in a row going into their regular season finale against Miami. The Orange have won eight games this year, going 4-3 in the ACC heading into this one. Here, they will look to earn head coach Fran Brown one last shower in the regular season by upsetting Miami and ending their hopes of winning the conference and making the playoff. To do that, Syracuse will need to air it out with their potent passing attack to keep up with the prolific offense of the Hurricanes.

Miami vs Syracuse Best Bet

We are expecting a thrilling Miami vs Syracuse contest from the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse. Both of these teams are very good at putting points on the board with their passing game. And while Miami should be able to get the win here to keep all of their aspirations in tact, we expect Syracuse to cover the spread as a double-digit underdog.
