The team has been out of action for a bit, but this team should have no trouble handling Long Beach State. Syracuse is currently averaging 11 points more per game than LB State, and allowing four points less per game as well. Donovan Morris is their leading scorer, averaging 19.3ppg, 2.9agp, and is shooting 40% from three point range. He will clearly try to do it all for Long Beach with his shooting. However, Syracuse should not allow so much offense as they did in Cornell because this Syracuse team is now well rested. The biggest question I imagine would be what the Devendorf decision will do mentally to him and the rest of the team. If they can leave the off the court stuff off the court, then this team should have no problem. Syracuse should win this one, but I think it will be another slow start. Syracuse over Long Beach State by 13.
