Mar 08, 2025 | 14:00 ET | TBA

DePaul
Moneyline Pick: Georgetown (-115) - A-

History favors the Hoyas when forward Chris Hawkins suits up, given his strong showings against the Blue Demons in past encounters, and both squads—well over the 41-game mark—are jockeying for a final postseason push. Expect Georgetown's slightly improved form to carry them through at -115, earning an A- grade as a strong mix of favorable scenario and profitable return

Over/Under Pick: Over 145, (-110) - Grade B+
Georgetown’s forward Manny Jones aims to halt the Hoyas’ two-game downhill stretch as they face a DePaul squad riding three straight losses, with the Blue Demons’ starting guard nursing a nagging thigh bruise that may impact their backcourt depth. Georgetown (8-11 in conference, 17-13 overall) has leaned on point guard Tyler Green’s career-high averages whenever facing DePaul (3-16 in conference, 12-18 overall), and this history of scorching offensive performances supports an uptempo style. On the opposite side, DePaul’s wing scorer Marcus Riley tends to heat up against the Hoyas, repeatedly finding open lanes in previous matchups. Despite lingering health concerns, both rosters still pack enough firepower to push the pace beyond the 145 mark, making the Over pick both lucrative and moderately likely to cash.
Spread Pick: Georgetown, -1 (-110) - B+

Georgetown’s forward Akok Akok has been unstoppable in the paint, fueling the Hoyas through back-to-back victories while DePaul has dropped three straight. The Blue Demons may also be missing a key contributor in Jalen Terry, who remains questionable with a knee ailment. Historically, Georgetown has taken four of the last five matchups between these squads, and that momentum suggests even a tight spread can be overcome. Expect Georgetown to cover the slim one-point margin with a B+ confidence rating, offering a moderate payout for those who ride on this small edge.
