College basketball odds, picks and predictions for Georgetown Hoyas vs Providence Friars. NCAAB betting free pick and best bet analysis.
It's been a long year for the Georgetown Hoyas, and our college basketball betting picks expect the Providence Friars to put them out of their misery as the Big East Tournament begins at Madison Square Garden tonight.
It's hard to figure out whether it was competition or actual play on the court, but it's challenging to suggest that this Hoyas team has improved much this season. Filtering out its efficiency ratings for the last 10 games, it sees a drop in its defensive and offensive numbers. It certainly doesn't help that it lost four games to end consecutive games to end the season, either.
That's a problem with Carter. He's a lethal shooter. He'll come into this game shooting an eFG% of 54% on the season on spot-up sets, and he should have a lot of space to operate today. Georgetown sat at the bottom of this category in the conference, but even when faced by teams in the conference that were slightly better defending in this category, he averaged 22 points per game in the conference.
I wonder if Cooley throwing his team under the bus two weeks ago was the best move for what appears to be a mentally fragile team. So much of conference tournaments is handicapping the motivation of teams, especially in the early rounds. There should be no question today about which side is more motivated, as one side is playing to postpone the inevitable, and the other could play itself into more basketball later this season with a few wins.
