Warming up
Jerami Grant is back as Syracuse looks to build some momentum heading into the ACC tournament. If he’s 100 percent coming out of halftime, that’s a bigger win for the Orange leaving Tallahassee than a victory over the Seminoles.

On a positive note
With Grant back in some capacity, the Orange can get its mojo back. A third offensive option emerging is crucial against a Seminole team that’s fighting for its life.

Slipin’ and slidin’
Syracuse stumbles into the ACC tournament with its fifth loss in six games. Having Grant back helps, but Florida State needs this game more. Ian Miller catches fire and FSU helps its case for an NCAA Tournament bid with a crucial win over a more talented Syracuse team.
