We’ve been talking a lot lately about the Hoyas’ home winning streak, and how at last the Hoyas have a real home court advantage. After the impressive win against UCONN on Monday, it’s time to turn our attention back home, as the Hoyas face Pitt on Saturday at the Verizon Center. We’re hoping Georgetown can keep the streak alive against the Panthers, and we’ve also put together a small list of the best moments so far.

March 3, 2007: Connecticut

The Hoyas crushed the Connecticut Huskies 59-46 to claim the 2007 Big East Regular Season Title. Roy Hibbert had game-highs with 18 points and 12 rebounds, and also added three assists, three blocks, and three steals. The victory also marked the first time that Georgetown beat the Huskies in the Verizon Center.

January 12, 2008: Connecticut

Roy Hibbert made a three-pointer with under four seconds to play to give the Hoyas a dramatic 72-69 victory over the Connecticut Huskies. The final basket of the game gave Hibbert 20 Points to lead all scorers. Patrick Ewing Jr., who would later be named the Best Sixth Man in the Big East, scored 14 points off the bench.

January 19, 2008: Notre Dame

Georgetown dominated Notre Dame 84-65 thanks to a double-double from DaJuan Summers (17 points, 11 rebounds). Roy Hibbert scored a game-high 21 points, but more importantly, he shut down the Big East player of the year Luke Harangody, who managed 13 points on 3-13 shooting from the field. In the teams’ two meetings at Verizon center in 2007 and 2008, the Hoyas beat the Fighting Irish by an average of 18.5 points.

January 21, 2008: Syracuse

In a game reminiscent of the early days of the Big East Conference, Georgetown defeated Syracuse 84-82 in overtime. Jessie Sapp scored five points down the stretch to force overtime, and the Hoyas came up with a critical stop in the final seconds thanks to the defensive efforts of Jeremiah Rivers.

February 11, 2008: Villanova

This was the first time that Georgetown beat the Villanova Wildcats at the Verizon Center. The game was tied in the final seconds and Villanova was going for the final shot. A solid defensive possession by the Hoyas made sure the Wildcats couldn’t even get a shot to the basket. Jonathan Wallace ran down the loose ball and was fouled with less than half a second to play. The senior captain calmly sank both free throws to make the final score 55-53.

March 8, 2008: Louisville

Georgetown defeated Louisville 55-52 to claim their second consecutive Big East Regular Season Championship. The win was a fitting final game for the four Hoya seniors – Roy Hibbert, Jonathan Wallace, Patrick Ewing, Jr., and Tyler Crawford. The game made for a memorable Senior Day, even though freshman Austin Freeman scored a team-high 15 points.
