Could Georgetown (2) Go Gown To A (15) Toniight?

[TedBaxter]

Down by 8 at the 16 minute timeout of the second half to Florida Gulf Coast.

[MKE_GoldenEagleFan]

FGCU looks really good right now, that Murray kid can jump!

[MUMac]

Nova cut it to 8 at the half against NC. Was down much more. Not a good showing, thus far, by Georgetown and Nova.

[MUMac]

I blinked. It is not 13. Wow, FGCU looks awfully good and Georgetown really looks like they are panicking.

[Markedman]

A 15 seed with a win over 1 2 seed(Miami) and now beating another by double digits.......RPI is in the top 100.....Sounds like they may have been underseeded to me...lol

I have said many times this year that I did not think Georgetown is any good. They are proving it right now!

[TedBaxter]

Nova making it a game. I like Jay Wright.

[MUMac]

FGCU is very athletic, quick and a nice looking club. I had not seen them play this year. They look like they are far more athletic and much quicker than Georgetown.

[MUMac]

Nova making it a game. I like Jay Wright.

I have always liked and respected Jay Wright. I remember the BE Conference Tournament Game when they beat MU on a last second shot and he had the team walk quietly by MU's locker room out of respect. Then he made nothing but glowing comments about MU. Always a class act.

[Mucrisco]

They are fun to watch! They move well without the ball and they move the ball well. I feel like I'm watching Crowder out there.

[The Reptile]

Well, Duke and Mizzou were 2's last year and went out in the "2nd" round. Why not GTown this year?

[TedBaxter]

Georgetown really pressing tonight. All outside shots.

I have said many times this year that I did not think Georgetown is any good. They are proving it right now!

Exactly!! never bought their hype. Thought if you shut Porter down, you had a great chance of beating them. By the way, is their anyone that loses as a very high seed in the tourney more than JTIII?? Oh yeah...Bo does. :P

[Mucrisco]

What an alleyoop! "I should pull this out and run some clock but watch this..."

No fear. Love it!

[The Reptile]

So, who exactly is the BE COY again and how did his team do in the NCAA's?

[Markedman]

Big East having a pretty bad NCAA overall so far.....Pitt, GT, Cincy and looks like Nova all lose in the first round....ND could make it 5 out of 8....

Or we could look at Cincy and Pitt as ACC teams and Creighton and Butler as Big East teams....then it looks a little better.....=)

Big 10 doing well....outside of one school......

[TedBaxter]

Porter had a great year and was always the calming influence on the Georgetown team. Tonight wasn't his or his teams night.

[mufansince72]

Here is the dunk of the year https://vine.co/v/bDOd9IpHXX0

[Markedman]

This isn't the kind of history you are looking to make.......

Georgetown is the 1st team ever to be eliminated in 4 straight NCAA Tournaments by a team seeded at least 5 spots lower.

[MUMac]

I thought going in, this would be a wide open tournament. I think a lot more upsets yet to come this weekend.

[DCwarrior]

When am I going to learn my lesson and stop picking Notre Dame do well in the tourney. They choke every year.

[russguss]

G'Towns record is even more interesting. This is ther record Since they had a Final Four in 2007:
