Big Sky Tournament 2017 Printable Bracket
A look at the 2017 Big Sky Tournament bracket, complete with a printable version for fans to fill out at home
Though not a major conference by any stretch, the Big Sky has been highly competitive and entertaining throughout the 2016-17 college basketball season. However true that may be, though, there is only going to be one team from the league in the NCAA Tournament for March Madness. That, of course, will be the winner of the 2017 Big Sky Tournament.
After going 14-4 in conference play and a solid 19-9 overall, the North Dakota Fighting Hawks enter the 2017 Big Sky Tournament as the favorites and No. 1 seed. Quinton Hooker at guard leads an explosive offense for the Fighting Hawks that ranked in the top-30 in the country in points per game on the season.
However, North Dakota has plenty of competition right behind them. The Eastern Washington Eagles, Idaho Vandals and Weber State Wildcats comprise the Nos. 2-4 seeds, respectively, and all finished within two games of North Dakota in conference play. Eastern Washington might be the toughest test as they went a solid 21-10 overall and have seen just as much high level competition outside of the conference as the Fighting Hawks.
Regardless, the conference tourney should be action-packed as it tips off in Reno, NV on Tuesday night. With that in mind, let’s have a look at the 2017 Big Sky Tournament bracket. To access a printable version, simply click on the image and you’ll be directed there:
