ANALYSIS: Georgetown is a fairly decent basketball team that, while likely better than average, isn't quite good enough to crack any top-25 rankings this year. Haslametrics has them ranked 88th overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 15-15. They are also ranked by this site as the #9 team (out of 10) in the Big East (average ranking 41.9).
Georgetown succeeds primarily through their offense. They are ranked 78th in offensive efficiency and score in excess of 107 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Georgetown is one of the more accurate teams in the college game when it comes to shooting the three. They're ranked 30th nationally in three-point field goal percentage and make about 39.0% of their attempts from there vs. AO. Though they convert many of their threes, the team doesn't really shoot a ton of them. Only 34.1% of their total attempts vs. AO are from long-distance. Georgetown also does a really good job to acquire opportunities from the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 30.08 vs. AO, they are ranked 32nd in the nation at getting to the charity stripe. In addition, the team is in the top-50 in free throw shooting, converting a solid 76.5% of their attempts.
Georgetown plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 125th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 100 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Georgetown does a fantastic job to prevent opposing teams from capitalizing on chances from offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 4.8% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 15th in the NCAA), and with a rating of 11.84, they're 21st in potential points allowed off of the offensive glass as well. Georgetown also makes a point to avoid fouls and prevent opponents from getting to the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 22.75 vs. AO, they are currently rated 57th in the country in that category.
Georgetown is one of the most consistent teams in NCAA basketball (currently ranked 24th in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their upcoming games far easier to predict. When playing on the road, Georgetown has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked first in the country in the away-from-home metric our site tracks.
Projections are based on present-day ratings. Stars indicate games played at a neutral location. Game efficiencies only account for data before a contest has gone analytically final and are adjusted to extract home-court advantage.
