The No. 7 Georgetown Hoyas will host the No.2 Villanova Wildcats in a Big East battle on Saturday at the Verizon Center in Washington, DC.

In the previous meeting this season, Villanova edged out the Hoyas by a score of 82-77.

Georgetown fell to the South Florida Bulls 72-64 on Wednesday. Greg Monroe had 21 points and eight rebounds, while Austin Freeman scored 21 points for the Hoyas in the loss. Georgetown, who blew a 13-point first-half lead, shot just 36 percent in the second half missing half of their free throws — making only 11 of 22 for the game, and committing 14 turnovers. At one point, South Florida had outscored Georgetown 30-13 in the second half. The Hoyas followed their worst game of the year with their best, losing by 17 at Syracuse and then blowing out Duke at home. Losses seem to fire up Georgetown.

Each time they’ve rebounded to play even better in the following game than they had before their previous defeat.

In the meantime, Villanova extended their win streak to 11 as the Wildcats held off a serious run from Seton Hall in an 81-71 victory Tuesday night. They are the only Big East team unbeaten in conference play. The Wildcats got production out of every player on their roster. Antonio Pena scored 16 points; Scottie Reynolds had 15 and Corey Fisher 12. Six players had at least five rebounds and 10 scored. The ‘Cats outrebounded the Pirates 50-31. Senior standout Scottie Reynolds continues to lead Villanova in scoring with 18.7 ppg, and is one of two players on the roster that has started all 21 games.

Villanova will need to contain Georgetown’s big man Greg Monroe, who dismantled the Wildcats’ in their Jan. 17 meeting at the Wachovia Center. Monroe put up 29 points, 16 rebounds and four blocks in that contest.

Likewise, the Hoyas will need to do a better job guarding Scottie Reynolds who scored 27 points in that same game.
