Beat writers split on Syracuse keeping bowl hopes alive against Louisville

Syracuse (4-6, 1-5 Atlantic Coast) plays its final road contest of the season, kicking off against Louisville (6-4, 4-3) at 4 p.m. on Saturday at Cardinal Stadium.

The Orange come into the weekend fresh off their first conference win of the season, a 49-6 blasting of Duke on the road while the Cardinals roundly polished off North Carolina State in Raleigh. Here’s what our beat writers think of the matchup.

Louisville 31, Syracuse 27

It’s tempting to pick the Orange in this one after they dismantled a Duke team that was favored by a similar spread just a week ago.
