Turnovers
By Hoya HoopsThe Hoyas were shown an early exit from the Big East Tournament by eventual champions Connecticut 79-62, falling to 0-3 in games without Chris Wright in the lineup. Prior to tip-off, we asked how many points Austin Freeman would score. Freeman had 20 points in the losing effort, meaning billy cox was closest and gets two points for his effort. Nicely done.
As we enter the NCAA Tournament, let’s take a look at the standings for the Hoya Hoops T-shirt:
Winner | # of Wins |
---|---|
Billy cox | 5 |
Bobby cox | 4 |
DBeck | 4 |
Hoya Chris | 4 |
Bob from Columbia | 3 |
Bobby in Tennessee | 3 |
Amanda cox | 2 |
BLark | 2 |
Hoyasincebirth | 2 |
Julien | 2 |
Let’s Go Hoyas | 2 |
AARON | 1 |
Big A | 1 |
Emily | 1 |
So, billy cox leads by the smallest of margins, and with each question now worth two points, it’s anyone’s game. Now, on to this game’s Pregame Prediction.
The Hoyas now know they will be taking on VCU on Friday night after the Rams defeated USC 59-46 last night in Dayton. Thanks to Coach Joe’s analysis of VCU in his scouting report, we know that the Rams use a high intensity defense to create offense. Georgetown will have to take special care of the ball in order to get the win. Also, considering Chris Wright is returning for his first game in three weeks and might be a little rusty handling the ball, limiting turnovers will be essential to Georgetown’s success.
How many turnovers with Georgetown commit?
We think the Hoyas will turn it over 13 times, right around the season average. Let us know your guesses in the comments. And remember, the closest answer is worth two.
