The Big East Tournament is Traditionally one of the best conference tournaments in College Basketball. This year should be no different as the tournament has three Champions in Seton Hall, Creighton, and Villanova. Seton Hall has arguably the best player in Myles Powell but has a good collection of talent that can help lead them to a Big East championship. Villanova always seems to be in the spot with a chance to win the biggest tournament and that is no different this year, The Wildcats have a collection of guys that can lead them to the tournament title. As for Creighton, the team that is the one seed in the league tournament, they have some questions, as Marcus Zegarowski is injured but this team certainly has the chops to not only do well in this tournament but make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament. Butler and Providence are certainly capable of making a deep run in this event as well, Marquette and Xavier will be looking to pick up a win or two to guarantee a spot in the NCAA tournament field. This league tournament is always my personal favorite league tournament to watch and it should be no different this year, here are my picks for the Big East tournament.
