UConn Aims for 14th Straight Win at Georgetown
17 Jan
Summary
- UConn seeks its 14th consecutive victory and remains unbeaten in conference play.
- Georgetown has lost five straight Big East games, struggling in coach Ed Cooley's third year.
- UConn's dominant defense is a key factor in their successful 17-1 season.
The No. 3 UConn Huskies are set to face Georgetown in Washington D.C. on Saturday, January 17, 2026, aiming to secure their 14th consecutive win and maintain an undefeated conference record. UConn, currently 17-1 on the season and ranked highly in national metrics, features the country's sixth-rated defense.
In contrast, Georgetown (9-8, 1-5) has faced significant challenges in Big East play, losing their last five games. Head coach Ed Cooley's team has yet to achieve consistent success in his tenure. The Huskies have historically dominated the Hoyas, winning all matchups since UConn's return to the Big East in 2020.
UConn's recent road performance has been strong, with a 5-0 record in true road games. Despite individual player struggles, like Solo Ball's recent shooting slumps, the team's overall efficiency remains high, positioning them as strong contenders.
