Shooting Woes
By Hoya HoopsIn our last Pregame Predictions, we asked you to guess what Georgetown’s free throw percentage would be against Rutgers. The Hoyas were 25-36, 69.4%, from the line against the Scarlet Knights, and Georgetown needed every one of those points to eke out a 52-50 win. Roy 55 was the closest with his guess of 70, giving him his first win of the year.
Georgetown’s next opponent is Pittsburgh, who started the Big East season 0-7 before finally picking up a conference win Wednesday against Providence. The Hoyas would like to make sure the Panthers don’t start a winning streak at their expense, but, to ensure that, Georgetown must shoot the ball significantly better than it did against Rutgers.
What will Georgetown’s field goal percentage be?
While the Panthers may be having a down year, they will still bring intensity on the defensive end, so we will say the Hoyas will shoot 44% from the field, an improvement for sure, but not a lights out performance against a historically tough defensive team. Let us know what you think in the comments.
