CBB *PLAY OF THE DAY*
Play: Syracuse Orange
Rating: 8*

The Syracuse Orange are 5-2 on the season. I like them to win and cover the spread here against the 3-4 Connecticut Huskies. The Huskies are 1-5 ATS in their last six games as an underdog while the Orange are 4-1 ATS in their last five games as a favorite.

UConn is banged up and won without impressing in a 51-49 victory over Boston University its last time out. The Orange meanwhile are coming off a 77-71 win against North Florida and led by as many as 24 points in the second half before slowing down. The Orange know they can't allow the Huskies to stay close here, and I expect the Orange to dominate this game from start to finish.
