PrintWelcome back to Big East ball folks. Every game, no matter the location or opponent is a battle. Georgetown saw a 20 point effort from Austin Freeman but it wasn't enough to overcome the Golden Eagles, who after losing to Villanova and West Virginia by a total of three points, hit twelve three pointers en route to their first conference victory. Many questions will be asked by Hoya fans:
- Why can't we take care of the ball?
- Why didn't we call a timeout to set up a play with ten seconds left?
- What would have happened if Lazar Hayward didn't grab that crucial offensive rebound with a minute to go?
- Why did Greg Monroe only take six shots?
- What did David Cubillan smoke/snort/inject before the game to go 6-6 from beyond the arc, doubling his career high in threes?
- Is this a sign to come for future games?

Inexplicable.
There is no explanation that will justify Monroe getting 6 shots in a game where he was at least 3 inches taller than the dude guarding him.
Casually.
going to bed
What hurts is that this was a very winnable game and that Georgetown didn’t play that badly. Marquette’s 3 point shooting clearly the difference, but what is the damn deal with Monroe taking 6 shots in this game?
May smoke a bowl and hit the sack. That, or just watch Real Housewives or something.
Probably the latter.
Definitely the latter.
Casually.
tough loss
but not the sky is falling kind. tough to beat a team when it seems like they did not miss a 3 pointer in the last ten minutes of the game.
Going into this game I thought if we could go 6-3 this month I would be happy, as long one W was against Syracuse, Duke or Nova. We can still do that.
Also bench contributing 2 TO and 4 fouls against 2 Pts, 2 R and a steal in 30 min is painful.
