Otto Porter had to leave the game after 34 seconds, the victim of a flagrant elbow from Maurice Sutton that left the Georgetown freshman lying on the court and bleeding from the mouth. So much for the glory of a making only a second appearance in the starting lineup. He was back in a few minutes, however, motivated by the nasty hit and ready to help lead the Hoyas to some of their best basketball of the season. His backdoor layup and two free throws gave Georgetown (No. 8 ESPN/USA Today, No. 9 AP) an 18-point first-half lead, and his fadeaway 3-pointer with a suspenseful bounce off the front of the rim stopped the momentum when Villanova was mounting a challenge. Porter finished with an eventful 15 points and six rebounds, and Jason Clark also had 15 points and six rebounds in Georgetown's 67-46 win over the Wildcats on Saturday.
