Monday pollday brings a #11 ranking for Georgetown in both polls. That’s the highest slot this season, largely thanks to losses by those ahead. You might already know the number 11 from the amps in This is Spinal Tap, former NY Giants great Phil Simms‘s jersey, and the number of points on the maple leaf on the Canadian flag.
Future Hoya opponents Syracuse (#5), West Virginia (#6), Duke (#7), and Villanova (#8 AP/#9 ESPN) all rank ahead of our boys, with Connecticut (#14) and Cincinnati (#25 AP/NR ESPN) behind. Last week’s foes Butler (#21 AP/#17 ESPN) and Washington (#24 AP/#21 ESPN) remain ranked.
My gambling self prefers to say “Yo-leven”.
Then maybe a back door little joe…
