Georgetown Hoyas vs. Connecticut Huskies Prediction

This matchup features Georgetown’s quality guard play and scoring depth against a Connecticut Huskies team that has been dominant at home and continues to overwhelm opponents with defensive efficiency and rebounding. Georgetown’s offense gives the Hoyas a path to competitiveness, but the Huskies home court edge, defensive advantage, and overall team consistency make the Huskies the more reliable side to be on in this matchup. With that said, I am backing the Connecticut Huskies to win this game.
