The Dartmouth Big Green and Georgetown Hoyas meet Saturday in college basketball action at the Capital One Arena. The Dartmouth Big Green look for a win after losing their opener to Boston College. The Georgetown Hoyas won 13 games last year and enter the fifth year under coach Patrick Ewing.
The Dartmouth Big Green are averaging 57 points on 37.5 percent shooting and allowing 73 points on 49 percent shooting. Brendan Barry is averaging 10 points and 2 assists, while Taurus Samuels is averaging 10 points and 3 rebounds. Cam Krystkowiak is grabbing 3 rebounds and Garrison Wade is grabbing 4 rebounds. The Dartmouth Big Green are shooting 20.7 percent from beyond the arc and 69.2 percent from the free thitem line. The Dartmouth Big Green are allowing 38.9 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 30 rebounds per game.
The Georgetown Hoyas say goodbye to their top-four scorers from last season, which includes four double-digit scorers. The good news is Georgetown did land a 5-star recruit in Aminu Mohammed, and he’s been pegged as the Big East Preseason Freshman of the Year. Mohammed is the highest ranked player to commit to Georgetown since Isaac Copeland, who struggled with injuries and was a disappointment. Donald Carey returns after averaging 8 points and 3 rebounds, while Dante Harris averaged 8 points and 3.2 assists. Collin Holloway played in 10 games last season, and Timothy Ighoefe averaged 3.2 rebounds.
The Big Green are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog and 4-9-1 ATS in their last 14 Saturday games. The Hoyas are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The over is 3-1-1 in Big Green last 5 overall. The over is 5-2 in Hoyas last 7 Saturday games.
The Georgetown Hoyas should be fine given they landed an elite player in recruiting and have enough role players coming back, but they did lose a ton of production and this is their first game. The Dartmouth Big Green have the privilege of playing a game to get the jitters out of the way. Georgetown could see a sluggish opener as they figure things out. Give me the road dog.
