Beast of the Big East

Yinzers,

The Big East Basketball tournament is by far the most exciting conference/tournament there is. Other than the Baylor Bears handing it to the Kansas gay hawks yesterday all the news was in the Big East.

Pitt choked it's chicken in the Back court brawl against West Virginia. My thought process is allot different this year, I do not think that the emphasis was on winning the Tournament but winning a National Championship. Think about it , it makes perfect sense. You would have to play, Uconn, Cuse',Louisville, etc etc etc- in a Four day romp. Leaving you exhausted to play one week later in the Tournament. The Pitt Panthers have enough time to rest and get over that Elite Eight Bump.

The Six Overtime Game UCONN and the Cuse' put on last night was unbelievable. Allot of players made shots that they had to. I think this ruined any chance of Syracuse winning the tournament because they will have to play at nine tonight and if you are a math major- 5 x6 overtimes meant that you played two and a half games last night just to win one game.

Finally the Villanova win yesterday was very apropo. Last second shot over Marquette was where it was at the whole game. Marquette just didn't have it in them .

Louisville cruised and they will be your Big east champ after this weekend. Look for them to roll.

Great weekend of Basketball ahead we will have a complete run down of Selection Sunday , Monday.
