The Hoyas have enough talent to win this game SU. We're talking about Josh Smith (6'10, 350 pounds) who averages 11 ppg and 6 rpg, Dvauntes Rivera (16.5 ppg and 48 steals), and Jabril Trawick (9 ppg and 32 steals). The Hoyas have weathered the 11th toughest schedule in the nation, and find themselves battle-tested for whatever Utah wants to bring to this cage match.
Utah....49th toughest schedule, unimpressive road games against Washington (SU loss 68-77), Oregon (SU loss 58-69), and UCLA (SU loss 59-69). They are a good team, but not 5 points better than Georgetown on a neutral court. If you want to see what Georgetown is capable of, go back to March 3 when they rolled into Butler's home court and won 60-54. Or when they destroyed #1 seed Villanova on Jan 19, 78-58.
Don't phuck with John Thompson, and don't believe the PAC-12 hype. Georgetown lost by only 3 to Wisconsin earlier this year on a neutral court. Utah ain't Wisconsin.
GEORGETOWN +5
