NOTRE DAME/SYRACUSE UNDER 149 1/2. (9-7 season)
Had every intention of betting this game 'over' until the public drove the number from 147 to 149 1/2 and decided to do a little home work.
Syracuse has consistently tipped 'under' at the Carrier Dome, turning the trick in 38 of its last 58. They have also been on the low side in 32 of 46 at home when the number was between 140 and 149 1/2 and in 13 of 16 when playing with one day's rest.
The Orangemen have also gone 'under' in 18 of 24 against teams with a winning record after 15 games and in 12 of 14 at home after failing to cash four of five of their previous six.
Syracuse scored 91 against Miami on Saturday when they shot 60 percent from the field but in its previous six games averaged only 61.2 PPG. Notre Dame has only averaged 71.1 PPG in its last four on the road.
