The set-up: No one expected the Orange to finish 9-3 overall and go 5-1 in their last six, but now they'll look to continue to defy the odds and carry that momentum over into the Camping World Bowl. WVU comes in off back-to-back losses to Oklahoma State and Oklahoma and it'll be without starting QB Will Grier, who will skip to focus on the draft. That just means that it's "next man up" for the Mountaineers. And that next man is Jack Allison, who now has a golden opportunity to cement his role next year. WVU is loaded with other offensive weapons though and the Mountaineers will be hungry to finish up strong as well. From a situational stand point, there's no doubt this one sets up as a "shootout" in my opinion.

The pick: Note as well that Syracuse has seen the total go "over" the number in five of seven as a favorite already this year, while WVU has seen the total go "over" in five of six already this season when the total is greater than or equal to 63. This number is a little low, play the "over."

10* play
