Here, we break down this Syracuse vs UNLV matchup and identify our best bet for the non-conference clash.
Syracuse Heads West For Non-Conference Matchup
So far this year, the Syracuse Orange have a 3-1 record overall, going 1-1 in ACC play early in the year. The Orange got a non-conference win in their last outing, beating up on an FCS opponent in Holy Cross. This week, Syracuse might have a harder time scoring points than they did against Holy Cross, as they face a UNLV team that has been very good defensively all year long. While Syracuse is the team from the power conference in this game, UNLV is the ranked team and is favored in this game, which means Syracuse will have to bring their best offensively to pull off what would be a legitimate upset.
UNLV Moving Past Quarterback Drama
Going into last week, uncertainty was the theme of the week for the UNLV Rebels, after NIL controversy led to starting quarterback Matthew Sluka leaving the program. But the team on the field for UNLV didn't seem to have any issues, as the Rebels crushed Fresno State 59-14 at home. UNLV is 4-0 this season and ranked 25th in the country entering this Syracuse vs UNLV matchup. The Rebels have yet to allow more than 20 points in a game this season, a streak they will look to keep alive here against a Syracuse team that has been inconsistent offensively in the first month and change of the season.
Syracuse vs UNLV Betting Pick
We will lay the points with the home favorite in this Syracuse vs UNLV matchup. The Rebels have not seemed impacted at all by the uncertainty caused by Sluka's departure. They will continue to dominate with their defense as they will move a step closer to asserting their claim to a ranking that would make them the top contender to earn the automatic qualifier spot for the College Football Playoff out of the Group of Five.
