The Hoos and Colonials played last year at JPJ and the Hoos won by 17, despite some struggled shooting the ball. GW actually led at halftime, but the Hoos really locked down the defense and held GW to just 16 second half points. This year's contest will be held at GW and should be a similar matchup. Both teams are good defensively, both teams grind it out and both teams are very big.
The Hoos second contest of the season is against the George Washington Colonials. This is the 2nd leg of the home-and-home, and comes in DC on the campus of GW.
