Miami Hurricanes beat Georgetown Hoyas 78-65 at State Farm Field House on November 28, 2025.
In a decisive matchup, the Miami Hurricanes defeated the Georgetown Hoyas with a final score of 78-65. This game took place at the State Farm Field House on November 29, 2025, and showcased the Hurricanes' ability to capitalize on their scoring opportunities against a Georgetown team that struggled to keep pace.
Miami entered the game with a record of 6-2, while Georgetown held a record of 5-2. The Hurricanes had recently experienced a mixed stretch of form, going 6-4 in their last ten games, but they were looking to bounce back after a loss to BYU Cougars just two days prior. In contrast, Georgetown had a record of 6-4 over the same span, but they were on a one-game losing streak after falling to the Dayton Flyers the previous day.
Miami's offensive performance was notable, averaging 83.4 points per game in their last ten outings, while allowing 70.9 points. Their recent scoring prowess was highlighted by a dominant 97-41 victory over Delaware State Hornets earlier in the month. On the other hand, Georgetown averaged 77.0 points scored and 73.6 points allowed during their last ten games, with their recent form showing an average of 80.6 points scored in their last five games.
The game began with both teams trading baskets, but Miami quickly established control. The Hurricanes' ability to score efficiently was evident, particularly in the second half, where they extended their lead with key plays. Caleb Williams made a three-point jumper, assisted by Malik Mack, which pushed Miami's lead to 72-60. Following that, Malik Reneau added a jumper, further solidifying their advantage.
Georgetown attempted to respond, with Malik Mack scoring a jumper to bring the score to 74-62. However, Miami maintained their composure, with contributions from players like DeShawn Harris-Smith and Tre Donaldson, who continued to score and keep the pressure on Georgetown. The Hoyas managed to score a few points late in the game, but it was not enough to close the gap.
In terms of home and away performance, Georgetown had a home record of 5-2, while Miami had a strong away record of 6-1 prior to this game. However, Miami's performance on the road has been less impressive, with an away record of 0-3, which they will need to address moving forward.
The injury picture did not heavily impact either team for this game, allowing both squads to field their key players. The betting market, as reported by DraftKings, had Miami favored by 5.5 points, with a total set at 151.5. This indicated a belief in a competitive game, but Miami's performance exceeded expectations.
The conditions in the arena were conducive to a high-scoring game, and both teams took advantage of the opportunity to showcase their offensive skills. Miami's ability to execute plays and maintain their lead throughout the game was a testament to their preparation and execution.
As the final buzzer sounded, Miami secured a 78-65 victory over Georgetown, marking a significant win for the Hurricanes as they look to build momentum for the rest of the season. The game highlighted Miami's offensive capabilities and Georgetown's need to regroup after consecutive losses.
