Projection: likely out

Georgetown’s resume is built around a statement road victory at Maryland and a home win over Clemson, but those moments sit alongside neutral-site setbacks to Dayton and Miami and a body of work padded with wins over low-tier nonconference opponents such as Morgan State, Binghamton, Coppin State and UMBC that do little to move the needle for a committee. The Hoyas have shown they can protect home court yet have offered limited proof they can consistently win away from campus beyond the Maryland outing, and that lack of marquee road or neutral victories leaves the profile tilted toward doubt. Upcoming chances against familiar Big East foes and higher-end nonconference opponents present clear pathways to change the narrative — winnable home dates against Xavier and Providence and looming trips to North Carolina, Marquette, Creighton, Villanova and Connecticut — so a signature win away from home would meaningfully improve perception while another bad neutral result would make it much harder to overcome the current holes, especially given recurring defensive inconsistencies.
