Syracuse Orange (3-4) vs. No. 17 Florida State Seminoles (6-1) First-Half GameThread

The Syracuse Orange (3-4, 1-2) are in Tallahassee to take on the No. 17 Florida State Seminoles (6-1, 4-1) today at noon ET on ABC. The Orange need to try and stop their losing streak but they've chosen a pretty bad place to try and do it. The good news is that FSU is missing two key players. The bad news is that FSU has a lot more good players to choose from.

Florida State started as 20-point favorites in this one. That line's down to 16 now, probably due to the absence of Dalvin Cook for the 'Noles. Ends up Everett Golson isn't playing either.

Syracuse is missing a few of its own offensive weapons too: Ben Lewis is out again, and Kendall Moore is doubtful.

The Orange are waging a war on Halloween, apparently, as they won't wear all-orange today.

What do 'Noles fans think are going to happen today? We asked Tomahawk Nation some questions.
