The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will take on the Syracuse Orange to kick off their ACC campaign on Saturday at Purcell Pavillion. After a blazing 4-0 start, Notre Dame has lost their last five games, including a 69-48 beatdown at the hands of the Georgia Bulldogs. With Marcus Burton dealing with a knee injury, Sophomore guard Braedan Shrewsberry steps up to lead the Fighting Irish in scoring, averaging 15.2 points per game on 41.3 FG%. The Orange are 2-3 in their last five games, though the Tennessee Volunteers beat them up by 26 points, 70-96, on December 3. Syracuse is led by dynamic junior guard J.J Startling, who averages 19.8 points on 46.8 FG% this season. Freshman forward Donnie Freeman emerges as the team’s top rebounder at 8.4 boards per game while contributing 11.7 points per contest.

Our Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs Syracuse Orange Prediction
Syracuse has won their last three meetings against Notre Dame and five of their last six. I like their chances of pulling off a win at home since they have performed better than the skidding Notre Dame in the past three weeks. Syracuse is a top-50 rebounding team at 37.0 rebounds per game whereas Notre Dame averages just 30.0 boards a game, which ranks 153rd in the nation. Our betting prediction for the Syracuse Orange vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish: Back the Orange to win.
