Georgetown vs Connecticut Pickswise Expert Predictions
The UConn Huskies have alternated wins and losses over their last 6 games heading into a home date with Big East rival Georgetown Hoyas on Wednesday night. UConn is coming off an 89-75 setback at St. John’s this past Sunday, its 2nd loss to the Red Storm in the span of 17 days. Following a whole host of departures to the NBA, these simply are not the same Huskies that cut down the nets in each of the past 2 seasons. They have already dropped 6 conference games and no one is averaging more than 15.3 ppg. Head coach Dan Hurley’s squad is shooting just 35.0 percent from three-point range and its turnover differential in Big East competition is a ridiculous -41 (195 to 154).
Georgetown is by no means a terrible team — it has alternated losses and wins over its last 7 and comes in with a 7-9 conference mark. The Hoyas have lost by more than 13 points only twice this entire season, only once since November 16 and zero times since January 28. They fell to UConn by a respectable 8 points on January 11. The bad news is that Thomas Sorber — the Hoyas’ second-leading scorer and #1 rebounder — is out for the year due to a foot injury suffered on February 15. That’s the main reason why this spread is so lofty. Georgetown should still cover, but I would proceed with caution given Sorber’s absence.
