| | | TEXAS: Assuming Myck Kabongo is eligible to play this season (NCAA violations), this is a Rick Barnes squad that has the potential to be dangerous if it finds its groove. But Kabongo (9.6 PPG, 5.2 APG) will have to bear a heavy load, replacing the production of J'Covan Brown, who carried the team last year with 20.1 PPG. Kabongo and Sheldon McClellan (11.3 PPG) should form a potent backcourt duo, but the question is if they will be able to battle on the blocks. Six-foot-10 center Cameron Ridley is a top-10 recruit, but he should take time to develop and will have a heavy load to bear from day one. The McDonald's All-American will be joined in the post by another first-year player standing 6-foot-10, Prince Ibeh, who should actually complement Ridley well as a more athletic post player who plays excellent defense. | | GEORGETOWN: John Thompson III had three double-digit scorers last season: Jason Clark, Hollis Thompson and Henry Sims, who are all gone. That makes for a younger Hoyas squad that if it succeeds, it will be led by 6-foot-8 sophomore Otto Porter (9.7 PPG, 6.8 RPG). But he didn't even start last year, with the two returning starters being G Markel Starks (7.1 PPG) and F Nate Lubick (3.5 PPG, 3.9 RPG, 2.0 APG). Throw in freshman SG D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera and SF Stephen Domingo, this is a team filled with talent, but a dearth of experience. |

*Texas-Georgetown Preview* ==========================
By JEFF BARTL STATS Writer
Texas (5-2) at Georgetown (5-1), 7:00 p.m. EDT
Georgetown and Texas have experienced embarrassing moments this season, but they've also had their share of positive ones.
The 15th-ranked Hoyas hope they won't have to survive another dismal shooting performance when they face the Longhorns' NCAA-best field goal percentage defense in the Jimmy V Classic on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.
Georgetown (5-1) shot 36.4 percent and was held to its lowest point total in the shot clock era during Friday's 37-36 win over Tennessee in the SEC-Big East Challenge.
Greg Whittington, Mikael Hopkins and Otto Porter each had eight points to lead the Hoyas, who hadn't scored that few points since beating SMU by the same score in the second round of the 1985 NCAA tournament.
"If you just look at the numbers and the stat sheet and say we won the game - before the game, I'd say you're crazy," coach John Thompson III said. "I'd think it's virtually impossible."
Thompson, though, was pleased with the fact his squad forced 13 turnovers and held Tennessee to only 15 of 46 from the field. Opponents are shooting 38.7 percent against the Hoyas.
"As frustrating as an offensive day that I can remember being a part of, we still got stops," Thompson said. "And that's not the worst thing in the world."
Georgetown played much better in a 78-70 victory over then-No. 11 UCLA on Nov. 19 and while suffering its only defeat the following night, 82-72 in overtime to No. 1 Indiana.
The Hoyas, though, are also no stranger to winning ugly. They won each of their three worst shooting performances last season but may have a more difficult time against a Texas team leading the country holding opponents to 30.7 percent from the field.
The Longhorns (5-2) haven't allowed any team to shoot better than 36.8 percent, when Division II Chaminade dealt them a surprising 86-73 defeat Nov. 19 at the Maui Invitational.
Texas then fell 59-53 to a mediocre Southern California team the following day, but it has since won three straight by an average of 16.0 points after beating Texas-Arlington 70-54 on Saturday.
Sophomore Julien Lewis hit 6 of 10 from 3-point range and finished with a game-high 18 points, while Ioannis Papapetrou added 17 off the bench.
Lewis' 12.0 points per game are second on the team to the 17.0 average of Sheldon McClellan, who finished with 14 points.
"I thought we played together a lot better as a team," Lewis said. "We just need to stay positive, stay focused and continue to work hard to keep getting better."
Coach Rick Barnes was pleased with the play of Lewis, who has scored in double figures in each of the last five games.
"He is getting better," Barnes said. "As quick as he is, we think he can score against anybody."
The Longhorns made 13 of 26 3-pointers, their most since also hitting 13 in a 95-75 win over Coppin State on Dec. 31, 2010.
"When we move the ball like we did (Saturday), we should be getting great looks at the 3-point line," Barnes said.
Tuesday will mark the second meeting between these programs, with Texas winning the first matchup 78-70 on Jan. 8, 1972.
