Editor’s Note: Sorry about the wrong bracket there earlier. Uploaded the wrong photo and listed the wrong times. This is the correct bracket. Thanks to “RD” for the heads up.

It’s time Panther fans. The Big East Men’s Basketball Championship Tournament has finally come. We’ve been slacking a little in our coverage over the past few weeks, but we’ve got our act together and we’re ready to cover the tournament from start to finish.

The Panthers, with a little bit of flash, have put together a nice finish to the regular season this year. Pitt enters the tournament at 13-5 in the conference (24-7 overall), tied for second with WVU and Villanova. Syracuse takes the uncontested top spot at 15-3 in the Big East (28-3 overall). With the Panthers’ record, they’ve earned a double bye in the tournament and automatically enter at the quarterfinal round. Pitt will face off first against either Notre Dame, Providence, or Seton Hall. Notre Dame earned a first-round bye and will play the winner of the Providence vs. Seton Hall matchup.

Tournament play starts on Tuesday with first round games at 12 PM, 2 PM, 7 PM, and 9 PM. Pitt will play on Thursday at 7 PM. The opening round will be televised on ESPN2 and ESPNU. All other rounds will be televised on ESPN.

Here’s how the bracket looks:

We’ll have a short analysis and predictions later today. A preview of the Pitt game will be posted Thursday morning (the day of Pitt’s first game).

We’ve also put up a new poll for you to voice your opinion on how far Pitt will go in the NCAA tournament. Be sure to vote!

Get pumped Panther fans!
