Georgetown 34, UC 27 - Halftime
UC is lucky to be this close given the way it has played on offense. A late flurry by Vaughn, who scored seven straight points, six on 3-pointers has gotten them back in the game. They'll have to cut down on their turnovers - they have 10 - to have a chance in the second half. On the plus side, the zone has limited Roy Hibbert to two points. He has attempted only two shots and has only one rebound.

Georgetown's basically on pace for their scoring average on the season. The defense has to be much better in the 2nd Half. UC doesn't play 3-point defense far too often. They double-down a bit too much sometimes.
With Georgetown's style on defense and UC's slow style on offense, I'm not sure how they have a prayer in the 2nd Half to be honest.
Well, as I expected, Thompson appeared to make better halftime adjustments. Another double-digit deficit and Mick doesn't appear to have corrected even one area at halftime. His coaching is leaving a lot to be desired here.
Thompson is a rotten coach. I can understand running a Princeton offense when you have crappy talent, like an Ivy League team, but why handcuff a talented crew like this? If UC had these athletes, we'd be undefeated, or close to it in the BE.
