Living in the northeast, I have seen a lot of Big East play.  Over the weekend I watched Syracuse loose on their home floor to a overrated Villanova team.  Syracuse is a big team, and Georgetown struggles more against big teams.  Look at their performance against UConn's big man.  Georgetown will likely win, but will not cover.  This will be an emotional game with a national audience (ESPN @ 7pm).  Syracuse will show up.  Take the points.

That seems like a bunch of points, I have to go with SYR +12

86 - 80

Have you seen what they do in DC?  Cuse will be lucky to get 65... Hoyas never set out to blow out teams, they're content with winning and that is what they are very good at on their home court... 142 1/2 is too much given that the Hoyas make teams play their game and theres no way this game gets that high...

Hoyas win 71 to 63
