A lot of my most respected sources were saying that Syracuse was a phony No. 1. Considering they have lost 4-of-5 straight up are by a combined five points, safe to say they are reeling. Four of the last six games they have failed to cover by 12 or more points.

Our power ratings have Syracuse projected to win. Florida State, which has shot 50 percent or better in 13 of its 29 games this season, enters Sunday's game against No. 7/7 Syracuse as the leaders in field goal shooting percentage in the ACC. The Seminoles are shooting .468 from the field and are looking to lead the ACC in field goal shooting percentage for the first time since joining the league for the 1991-92 season
