On the season Syracuse is 19-15 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 15-17 and Marquette is 14-15-1 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 17-12.
Syracuse plays a tough 2/3 defense and in the win over Indiana they shut down the Hoosiers offense holding them to a FG% of 33.3%.
Michael Carter-Williams went for 24 points in the win over Indiana and while the team’s 2 leading scorers for the season in forward C.J. Fair and James Southerland only combined for 11 points they did combine for 16 rebounds. Carter-Williams is a tough match up because of his size in the backcourt and with the solid FW duo Marquette will have to play good all around defense in this game.
The Golden Eagles played a great all around game in their upset win over Miami shooting 54% from the floor and holding Miami to only 34.9% shooting. [ad-6571516]
Marquette backup forward Davante Gardner is 290 pounds and scored 14 points and grabbed 4 rebounds in the win over Miami. He creates spacing problems for the Orange zone defense and in the earlier win over Syracuse during the regular season he scored a career high 26 points.
Vander Blue is the leading scorer for the Golden Eagles on the season and he scored 14 points in the win over Miami. While his offense will obviously is key so is his defense, as he and the Marquette guards will be facing a Syracuse team that can really shoot the 3-pointer. Carter-Williams, Brandon Triche and James Southerland can all shot the 3 well and the Golden Eagles have to keep these guys from getting open looks from deep.
In some betting trends for this East Region championship game Syracuse is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS win and they have an Under record of 16-7 in their last 23 games following a ATS win.
Marquette is 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record, -4-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall, and they have an Over record of 4-1 in their last 5 games.
Jason’s Pick: Syracuse is 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games against Marquette, but that trend will not continue. The Orange are a better and more balanced team and their D will play well again, as Syracuse will win, cover the spread, and advance to the Final 4.
