The Big East men's basketball tournament has been one of the best competitions in American sports over the past few decades, featuring massive star power, great teams and classic games at Madison Square Garden.
It's always a must-see event every year, even in the era of the "new" Big East. Last year, Villanova and Seton Hall played a thrilling championship game in which the Pirates won 69-67 in the last seconds.
This year, Villanova is a very heavy favorite to recapture the Big East crown. Will any team take the Wildcats down?
Below you'll find the Big East tournament schedule, the bracket and round-by-round picks.
