Butler falls behind big yet again, can't catch up to Georgetown

Comebacks are glorious when you win. Better not to fall so far behind.

Georgetown sank eight of its 11 3-pointers in the first half, built a 25-point lead and humiliated Butler 78-63 Saturday in Big East basketball at Washington, D.C.

The Bulldogs (7-11, 6-9) have trailed by 10 or more points in 15 of 18 games. They fell to 1-7 in Big East road games.
