Tonight’s Big East men’s basketball schedule is highlighted by a marquee matchup between the Georgetown Hoyas (16-11, 7-9) and the Huskies of UConn (18-9, 10-6).
The two-time defending champs are not used to inconsistency at this time of the year, but that is what is happening in February. UConn is 2-3 in their last five games losing to St. John’s twice and Seton Hall in the last three weeks while also knocking off Villanova and Creighton.
Georgetown announced yesterday super freshman Thomas Sorber (foot) will undergo season-ending surgery. That punctures the season for Ed Cooley and the Hoyas. Like UConn, Georgetown is 2-3 in their last five games.
Lets dive into the matchup and offer some information and possibly a sweat or two.
We’ve got all the info and analysis you need to know ahead of the game, including the latest info on the how to catch the opening tip, recent team performance, player stats, and of course, our predictions, picks & best bets for the game from our modeling tools and staff of experts.
