Syracuse vs. Georgia Tech Prediction, Odds, Lines, Picks, and Preview- January 21 | 2023 NCAA Basketball Regular Season

The Syracuse Orange desperately need a victory to keep their flickering March Madness hopes alive as they travel to Atlanta, Georgia, to take on the struggling Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.

Syracuse shows a history of beating lesser teams in the ACC and then losing to ranked opponents this season. The Orange need some resume-building victories to continue playing in March.

Georgia Tech limps into this contest, losing six of their last seven and only one ACC victory on the season. The Yellow Jackets don't appear to be post-season bound at this point. Who will be victorious on Saturday--a Syracuse Orange team on the brink of a floundering Georgia Tech squad?

Syracuse Orange vs. Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets: Prediction

I know the homecourt advantage factors in, but I don't see Georgia Tech putting up much of a fight here. The Yellow Jackets don't have much firepower, and the legendary Syracuse zone defense will get the better of them. Take Syracuse and give the points.

Final Prediction: Syracuse -2.5 -110, Under 142.5
