Georgetown is a 14.5 pt underdog vs Villanova. Since it’s game day, at what time does the 10-post limit pause starts? How long does it last? I didn't look it up but this has to be the highest home dog spread since the JT2 era. This line implies that if we were playing at Nova today we would be 20.5 point underdogs. There is no way a major college basketball team with the resources we have should ever be 14.5 point underdogs at home. Just out of pure principle I have to bet the Hoyas today and I think we are in an awful spot. Nova is going to try and make us pay for the Big East Tournament game. We probably won't shoot the lights out again and they will give 20+ open 3. I took the points too based on the players having fortitude, respect for the jersey they wear and being a Georgetown Hoya player.

That is a true statement. However, he does clear the boards when he is competing for the rebounds and with Aminu battling with him down low, we usually win the rebound battle. We just might have to get him some help early in the possession if his man has the ball in the paint. Maybe that's the answer. I know one thing, he can't let the guy shoot the ball without putting his hands up. I guess the ten post rule has already been abandoned. It doesn't apply to the game threads.

I think we will need to deploy way more small ball today or Dixon may really expose our centers more than they already are being exploited.

Really Big Tim is the only one who won't be moved around like a rag doll. Dixon will go right by Tim but I guess we will find out very soon as I'm sure both options will be deployed at some point.

If Collin had any athleticism he would be a great player.
