I was half watching it. I always like triple overtime games, even if the teams play terrible and I don't have to sit down and actually watch it if I don't want to.

LittleHurt05 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I'm not a big fan of any Big East teams (other than DePaul ), but for some reason the Big East tourney is always the most exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact it's at MSG makes it exciting for me. There is no team this year that will win 4 or 5 days in a row, IMO, but should be fun as always.

There is no team this year that will win 4 or 5 days in a row, IMO, but should be fun as always. Since the 9 and 10 seeds now get to skip day 1, there definitely isn't a team winning 5 days in a row. If Syracuse can get back to how they played the first half of the season, they have the potential to win 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danman31 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Watching the Big East Tournament in the Garden is among my fondest memories. I know it won't be the same with Louisville, UConn, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, etc. gone, but I hope they can play the Catholic League Tournament at the Garden still. Have they said they will yet?

Yes, part of the separation deal is that the Catholic 7 get to keep the BIG EAST name and have their tournament at MSG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Big East/ACC/Catholic realignment has me so confused. They keep talking about conferences and I have no idea who is where or what.

Notre Dame, Syracuse, and Pittsburgh going to the ACC in 2013 Louisville going to ACC in 2014 Rutgers going to BIG in 2014 Georgetown, Providence, St. John's, Seton Hall, Villanova, DePaul, and Marquette form the "new" Big East in 2013 Connecticut, Cincinnati, and South Florida joined by Houston, Memphis, SMU, Central Florida, and Temple in 2013; Tulane and East Carolina in 2014 and Navy in 2015.

Thank you. So the Catholic 7 is still the Big East technically & the Uconn/CIncy is the new nameless "america 12" conference or whatever?

southsider2k5 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I can't wait for this to be done so that I don't have to hear any more about what a big loss the Big East going away is. The damned conference is 30 years old, and has one honest to goodness top notched rivalry. This isn't the Big 10 going away or something. The only reason it is a big deal is because is the damned east coast teams splintering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
