The Syracuse Orange (12-9, 4-4) try to keep their razor-thin NCAA Tournament hopes alive on Saturday afternoon when they host the No. 6 Florida State Seminoles (18-3, 6-2). FSU's obviously an intimidating opponent, but they did just lose by 20 to Georgia Tech on Wednesday, AND Las Vegas listed the 'Noles as just three-point favorites as of Friday night. That said, Dino Babers once told us you shouldn't always believe what Vegas tells you though...
