DePaul vs. Georgetown: Big East Tournament Predictions (Wednesday)

by |

The Big East Tournament gets underway Wednesday with three first-round games from teams seeded sixth through 11th, all of which air on Peacock.

These teams playing on Wednesday have to win four games in four days to win the tournament and punch their ticket to March Madness. While Villanova is the only one of these teams (+1500) with shorter than +6500 futures odds to win the Big East Tournament, history says teams can go on such a run, with Georgetown in 2021 being the latest team to win four games in four days at Madison Square Garden.

    Wednesday's Best Big East Tournament Predictions: DePaul vs. Georgetown

    DePaul vs. Georgetown

    DePaul swept the two regular-season meetings with Georgetown, winning by a combined 11 points. Their most recent matchup was just four days ago in the regular-season finale. The Blue Demons won in Washington D.C. after shooting a blistering 53.3% from three-point range.
    But there were encouraging signs from the Hoyas in the loss, like the fact they out-rebounded the Blue Demons 33-29 and only committed six total turnovers.
    Georgetown will have the best player on the floor in Micah Peavy, who has scored 19+ points in 11 of the last 13 games, which includes a 29-point outburst (his second-highest scoring game of the season) in the last game against DePaul.
    DePaul ranked 10th in the league in adjusted offensive efficiency and in the bottom four in three-point percentage (30.6%) in league play. Thus, I expect extreme regression from a shooting standpoint and for Georgetown to get revenge for the two regular-season losses.

    Pick: Georgetown (-112)
