Sat Feb 15 19:30:00 UTC 2025: **Georgetown Hoyas Aim for Season Sweep Against Butler Bulldogs**
INDIANAPOLIS, IN – The Georgetown Hoyas (15-9, 6-7 BE) look to complete a season sweep of the Butler Bulldogs (11-13, 4-9) in a crucial Big East matchup today at 2 p.m. ET at Hinkle Fieldhouse. The game will be televised on FS1.
The Hoyas defeated Butler 73-70 on January 31st, and a victory today would have significant implications for their postseason hopes. A win would lift Georgetown to a .500 record in Big East play for the first time since March 2019, putting them even with Xavier and just one game behind Villanova for fifth place in the conference. Fifth place avoids the opening round of the Big East Tournament.
Despite the Hoyas’ recent win, the betting lines favor Butler. KenPom projects a 73-69 Butler victory with a 64% win probability, and DraftKings lists Georgetown as a 3.5-point underdog.
This game marks a significant opportunity for the Hoyas. Rich Chvotkin will be on the call for his 51st season broadcasting for the team. For those with gambling concerns, resources are available (see original text for contact information).
