College hoops is my favorite sport. When I have the chance to watch great games live and in person, I will. I am looking forward to the NCAA games here. However, I will say this, I will take the BIG EAST Tourney to the NCAA as an in-person viewing experience every day of the week. Compared to the BIG EAST Tourney, the early round games of NCAA are lifeless. Fans of the schools are there for their teams and not the tourney. At BIG EAST, everyone knows every other team and seem more into all of the games than just one game each day.
