No. 2 Duke vs. No. 9 Syracuse
Saturday October 7th, 12:00 p.m.

The third and final top 15 matchup in the ACC this weekend will showcase the Blue Devils and Orange going head-to-head in Durham this Saturday. Duke (9-1) enters Saturday’s contest on a six-game winning streak, with victories over Boston College (3-2) and No. 25 Boston University (5-1) over the road last weekend. At 2-1 in conference play, Duke will look to improve to 3-1 when the Orange come to town. After starting the season at 7-0, the Orange (9-3) have lost three of their last five games to fall from No. 7 in the polls. Last weekend, the Orange lost a heartbreaking 2-1 game at Louisville in double overtime to fall to 1-3 in the ACC this season. Syracuse bounced back last Sunday with a 1-0 win at home over No. 14 Princeton. While this is Syracuse’s lone game this weekend, the Dukies will play a back-to-back when they host No. 23 Iowa on Sunday. Like Boston College, Syracuse is in desperate need of a conference win. Unfortunately, it won’t come easy against one of the best teams in the country.

So, we beat BC 6-0, at their place, they have lost 5 games and we are 10-3, and they are #7 and we are #10? Makes sense.
