Georgetown puts Big East win streak on line vs. Villanova

Once one of the premier powerhouses of the Big East Conference, Georgetown has not won five straight league games since 2013.

Saturday in Washington, D.C., the Hoyas (13-10, 5-7) have a chance to accomplish the feat, but it won't be easy as they face Villanova (17-5, 8-3).

The sudden turnaround of Georgetown came after it lost six straight, with the final defeat of that skid coming at Villanova 66-51 as the Hoyas committed 17 turnovers and made just 34.0% of their shots from the field.
