At this point, you might as well mark it on your calendars. Another year, another occasion where Georgetown loses a November “buy game.” National Gut Punch Month continues! Yes, Georgetown hosted Arkansas State, let the visitors wipe them off the floor in the first half, and then led a furious comeback to fall short to the visiting squad... and now owes them $95,000 (figure courtesy of a Casual FOIA request of our friends at Arkansas State).
And this time, fans could not point fingers at a lackluster home crowd. Georgetown students packed McDonough Arena and made it a loud, and dare I say tough place to play.
