This was also the second straight G'town-Syracuse game in which K. Ongenaet has assaulted D. Summers - tonight with a swinging elbow to the back of the head which lead to Ongenaet's ejection. Is anyone aware of any sort of history between these two? I didn't see any evidence in either game that Summers did anything to provoke the attacks.
With the loss, Georgetown (13-10, 4-8) faces a monumental challenge to make the NCAA tournament, with three of the next four games against KenPom.com top-25 teams.
Let's run the numbers:

It's getting late, so just a few quick thoughts:
- The Orangemen had a block party in the 1st half (more than 1 in 4 G'town 2FGA was blocked), which likely lead to the low 2FG% for the Hoyas in the half.
- Georgetown exploited seams in the 2-3 zone to rack up a ton of offensive rebounds
- The Hoyas' carelessness with the basketball in the first half was a big reason they trailed at the half.
- Syracuse came into the game 3rd best in the country at defensive FT Rate (3rd fewest FTA/FGA), and lived up to that billing.
- In any game that goes to overtime, it's easy to look at FT shooting as the difference between a win and a loss, but Syracuse shot well above their season average (63.8%), while Georgetown shot well below their season average (72.1%).

Georgetown got strong offensive games by the 5 normal starters (N. Mescheriakov started for J. Sapp today, hopefully in a one-time experiment).
Summers, C. Wright and G. Monroe were all positive contributors today, with A. Freeman just missing the cut. Monroe also tied for game-high in plus/minus, despite being on the losing side. Any chance we can clone him in the off-season?
