Monmouth Preview
The Hawks come in off a 0–2 road swing against Seton Hall and La Salle where scoring dipped. Jason Rivera-Torres has been the most productive option with 14.3 points per game along with 7.7 rebounds, and Jack Collins has chipped in 9 points and 6 rebounds per game. Monmouth's 33.3 percent shooting from three gives the Hawks a workable perimeter base, but the team struggles to create efficient inside looks. Monmouth rebounds well at 38 boards per game, which is one area that could help them hang around early.

Naithan George brings 11.3 points and 3.3 rebounds and is the playmaker on offense who has pushed tempo and generated clean shots.

Monmouth vs Syracuse Pick
This matchup ultimately comes down to Syracuse’s shot-making against Monmouth’s ability to keep up. The Hawks have shown that they can rebound, but sustaining possessions against a team that is scoring well is a different challenge. The Orange have not faced a true test yet, but the way they’ve handled business suggests they are sound. Even with a free-throw percentage of just 63.5 percent, Syracuse’s ability to create separation early has minimized late-game pressure.
