For mid-major teams on Georgetown's schedule, this is the year to take a bite out of the Hoyas.

Each of the losses for defending Big East champion Georgetown (2-3) has come to a team lower on the Division I food chain. That's a good omen for Longwood (4-3) of the Big South, which travels to Washington, D.C., on Tuesday night.

In a season in which many teams returned intact because of the extra year of eligibility provided by the pandemic, Georgetown lost three of last year's top four scorers to the pros and the other, Qudus Wahab, via transfer to Maryland.
