FILE - In this Jan. 19, 2015 file photo, Georgetown head coach John Thompson III directs his team during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game against Villanova, in Washington.

Losing to a team seeded 10th or worse in each of the Hoyas' last five NCAA appearances. So even if the faces have changed, and history does not dictate what happens now, with fourth-seeded Georgetown's South Region opener against 13th-seeded Eastern Washington at Portland, Oregon.
