Who is the Favorite in the 2024 Big East Men’s Basketball Tournament?
The Big East is extremely strong this season. The UConn Huskies have been ranked extremely high this year along with Marquette and Creighton. The Seton Hall Pirates and St. John’s Red Storm have strong conference records as well, so we will be well-poised for March Madness to ensue. While only one team will earn the automatic bid to March Madness, it’s expected the league could see up to five or possibly six teams earn spots in the tournament.
