In some ways you could argue that last year’s Big East Men’s Basketball Tournament was even tougher than the NCAA Tournament. After all, the Big East sent an incredible 11 teams on to the Big Dance, which means the conference was clearly the toughest and most talented in the country. Of course that statement was proven when the UConn Huskies went on to win the national title after capturing the Big East Tournament. And the performance of the Huskies in that Big East Tournament was perhaps the most impressive of all, as they won five games in five days and in the process took down the Georgetown Hoyas, Pittsburgh Panthers, Syracuse Orange and the Louisville Cardinals in the championship game. Some thought that grueling run would tire the Huskies out in the NCAA Tournament, but they went all the way to win another title for coach Jim Calhoun.

Part of what makes the Big East Tournament special is being played at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Except for a few years in the early ’80s, MSG has been the perennial host of the event and Big East Tourney tickets are always among the hottest of the entire college basketball season. Something about Madison Square Garden just brings out the best from these teams, and the atmosphere inside the arena is truly electric. You can experience it for yourself with Big East Conference Tournament tickets.

Another aspect of the Big East Tournament that makes it so popular is that you never know how it’s going to turn out. Over the past six seasons, there have been six different winners of the Big East Tournament. Although some have suggested leaving out the bottom tier of teams in the 16-team conference, the excitement of giving them one last chance to make their season only adds to the appeal. And remember that UConn was actually a #9 seed in last year’s tournament, so anything can happen. If you want the best deal on Big East Conference Tournament tickets, GoTickets is ready to deliver.
