Pick
I am sticking with Depaul here. I simply can’t back Georgetown in their current form, losing 30 straight conference games and it almost is to the point where the line is low enough that if you back Georgetown, you’re almost thinking they win outright and even at home I’m not buying it. Depaul may have their issues, but they’re the better team here and I think they bag the win and cover.
