Seton Hall vs Georgetown Prediction
Georgetown comes into this game after dominating Creighton last time out, but they will be on the road here. The Hoyas only have losses against Notre Dame and West Virginia, and they are scoring nearly 77 points per game. Seton Hall has lost three games in a row and they are scoring just 60.9 points per game this season. Both of these teams have been very solid defensively, but I can’t back Seton Hall with how they are shooting the ball. Take Georgetown on the road.
