On the season Georgetown is 14-7 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 8-10 and UCONN is 12-10 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 10-9-1.
UCONN is 12-2 at home and Georgetown is 5-2 on the road.
Georgetown has lost 6 of its last 7 road games against UCONN.
The Hoyas are coming off a great road win against Syracuse, which snapped the longest home winning streak in the nation, but Georgetown only shot 35.2% from the floor. They played great defense and it was a one-man show with Otto Porter Jr. going for 33 points while no other player for the Hoyas scored more than 7 points.
Porter is averaging 15.9 ppg, but he will need help tonight mainly from Markel Starks (12.1 ppg), who has struggled in his last 2 games.
The UCONN offense has their work cur out for them facing a Georgetown defense that totally shut down Syracuse in their last game and ranks 2nd in the Big Easy in defense (55.7%) and opponents’ field goal percentage (37.4%). [ad-6571516]
UCONN leading scorer Shabazz Napier (17.2 ppg) has 28 points and 27 points respectively in the Huskies last 2 games and Ryan Boatright and Omar Calhoun each had 17 points against DePaul.
UCONN has to find a way to score and if they can do that they have a good chance to win, as the Hoyas are not a high scoring team only ranking 241st in the nation in points per game.
In some betting trends for this Big East match up Georgetown is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games, 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record, and they have an Under record of 5-1 in their last 6 road games.
UCONN is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall, 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record, and they have an Under record of 7-3 in their last 10 home games.
Jason’s Pick: The Hoyas will keep up their solid play on D and they will win and cover in a low scoring game tonight.
