Terrapins vs. Orange Prediction 11/27/2017

Maryland proved that a good defensive effort by their opposition can cause them fits as St. Bonaventure proved in their match on November 24th knocking them off 63-61. I expect much of the same from Syracuse tonight who have held every opponent to 67 or fewer points. The Orange also have the scheduling edge with the Terrapins playing their third game in four days.
