Georgetown is coming into this game playing awful in their recent games but they have been like that all season. They only have 2 games left against conference opponents this season and they have not won a game yet, going 0-17 so far. They have lost 18 straight games coming into this one and they have not even won a game on the road this season as they are 0-9. Their last win came against a lower tier team like Howard and now they are going up against a Seton Hall side that has been heating up in their recent games. Seton Hall has had their struggles this season but they have won 3 straight games coming into this one and have been picking up a lot of steam with those wins as their last win came on the road by double digits. They have also been great at home this season with a 12-3 record there. They have been playing very well recently and will surely roll right over Georgetown here at home by double digits.
