Matchup Breakdown
Stonehill Outlook
Stonehill averages 68 points per game, with Hermann Koffi and Ridvan Tutic leading the offense. Their rebounding (39.8 per game, 78th nationally) highlights balance, though their 3-9 record and 0-8 road mark underscore inconsistency. Tutic’s inside presence and Sunderland’s perimeter shooting provide stability.
Syracuse Outlook
Syracuse averages 79.9 points per game with Naithan George, William Kyle III, and Kiyan Anthony providing scoring depth. Their two-point shooting (56.2%) and rebounding edge (41.8 per game) highlight offensive strength. Their 8-3 home record underscores betting confidence heading into ACC play, despite struggles from three-point and free-throw range.
