Maryland vs Georgetown Prediction
In this Maryland vs Georgetown Prediction, Maryland is coming as -2.5 road favorites. Both teams are coming off comfortable wins in their opening games of the season, as Georgetown won by 22 points at home and will be playing its second straight game at home to start the season, while Maryland won by almost 30 points at home and will be tested for the first time on the road. Both teams played excellent defense in their opening games, holding their opponents into just 67 and 58 points respectively and most of their previous head-to-head meetings had been low-scoring ones, as the under is 3-1 in their four meetings. In their most recent clash last year, they combined for just 130 points together, so I expect another low-scoring affair today. Take the under 145.5 points in this one.
