ANALYSIS:
While this site doesn't quite consider them to be in the national title hunt, Syracuse has the potential to be a formidable opponent for many in Division I. Carrying a record of 19-15, they are currently rated #43 overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #10 team (out of 15) in the ACC (average ranking 44.4).

Syracuse will create problems for opponents with their extremely prolific offense. Scoring roughly 115 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, the squad is rated #24 in offensive efficiency. Syracuse is an outstanding shooting team, capable of converting from a variety of locations on the floor and ranking in the top-50 in each of our four most noteworthy field goal categories. The long-ball may be their strength (40.4% from three vs. AO, 12th in the nation), but the team also makes 65.3% of their near-proximity shots (41st), 40.9% of their mid-range chances (15th), and 48.3% of their total shots from the field (26th) vs. AO. Syracuse is also one of the better teams in the country when it comes to converting scoring chances off of offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team successfully converts 8.3% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 38th nationally).

Syracuse is also a fairly decent team on the defensive end of the court. The team ranks 108th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 99 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Syracuse does a pretty solid job avoiding careless fouls and minimizing opponents' opportunities from the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 23.30 vs. AO, they are currently rated 41st in the country in that category. Syracuse has also been able to successfully prevent opponents from making shots between the three-point stripe and the low post. They're ranked 47th in Division I in defensive mid-range field goal percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 33.3% of their attempts from that distance. Due to this fact, AO will take nowhere near as many mid-range shots as they typically would and, as a result, only 25.1% of AO's field goal attempts will come from those in-between locations. If Syracuse does exhibit a weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's propensity to allow too many shot attempts per trip. The squad has a rating of 85.32 in defensive field goal attempt rate vs. AO, which ranks 44th-worst in college basketball.

Syracuse has been one of the more erratic teams in NCAA basketball this year (presently ranked 326th in the country in consistency), which makes forecasting the outcomes of their upcoming games tougher than most. On the road, Syracuse performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked last in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
