Big East versus B1G in NCAA Tournament
Big East and B1G have both been outstanding so far in the tournament. Both have 3 teams in the Sweet 16 already, and the B1G has a chance to get TWO more in today (Purdue and Michigan State) while the Big East can get THREE more (GO USF, GO Cincy, and GO GEORGETOWN!).
Big East is 10-3 so far, B1G is 8-1, a combined 18-4.
So far, though, we've TOTALLY avoided each other! No games have featured B1G vs Big East, and none of the 5 games involving the remaining teams do today. So it is possible that at the end of today there will be SIX Big East and FIVE Big Ten teams in the Sweet 16.
And even in the Sweet 16, the only confirmed matchup is Syracuse vs Wisconsin. Other possibilities (* indicates a team that has not yet advanced to SW16):
Purdue*/Georgetown*
Cincy*/Ohio State
Michigan State*/Louisville
Would LOVE to see all of these come to fruition and set up a massive B1G/Big East battle-royale in the Sweet 16 !!!
