The Big East Tournament bracket for the 2023 men’s basketball tourney with a schedule, location and how to watch every game this year. 

We are coming into the 2023 Big East Tournament with a truly wild season in the conference. The Marquette Golden Eagles came out and earned a regular season championship under Shaka Smart despite being picked to finish ninth in the preseason. Now we head to the tournament with a team looking to punch an automatic bid to March Madness.

There is so much parity in this league with the UConn Huskies, Creighton Bluejays and Xavier Musketeers all having looked like the conference’s best team at various points in the year, in addition to Marquette. That means that just about anything could happen and the Big East Tournament bracket could get busted extremely quickly.

So let’s take a look at the 2023 Big East Tournament bracket along with the schedule and everything you need to know to watch this week.

Marquette as the No. 1 seed, as mentioned, is a bit of a shock but now they can back it up. It’s going to be a fascinating week in the Big East, though, because so many of these teams have high ceilings but have been highly inconsistent throughout the year. Xavier, UConn, Creighton and Villanova — and Providence to a lesser degree — all fit this bill. It also wouldn’t be a shock if any of those teams are punching their ticket to March Madness, though, because all are capable.

Where is the Big East Tournament in 2023?

In the heart of New York City, the tournament is played out in basketball’s Mecca, Madison Square Garden.
