Big East Tourney Preview

When: Mar. 10-14

Where: Madison Square Garden, New York City

Outlook: And just when you thought March couldn’t get any better. All 16 teams from the Big East will make the trip to Madison Square Garden this year.

With Louisville, Connecticut, and Pittsburgh all in the running for No. 1 seeds, there should be plenty of fireworks in New York City once again.

Bubble Burst

Providence. The Friars have to beat the winner of Cincinnati/DePaul on Wednesday and then likely beat No. 1 seed Louisville the following day to lock up an NCAA tournament birth.

Dark Horse

Syracuse. The Orange might be the hottest team in the Conference. Cuse is on a four-game win streak, beating opponents by an average of 22.5 ppg during that stretch.

Expect the Orange to give Connecticut a run for their money in a quarterfinal match on Thursday night.

Upset Watch

St. John's. Playing on their home court, the Red Storm could do some damage.

Remember, St. John's has already beat Georgetown twice this season.

Predicted Winner

Pittsburgh should cut down the nets and claim the number one overall seed in this years NCAA tournament.

Levance Fields and Dejuan Blair will cut down the nets in Madison Square Garden and then get ready for a championship run.
