This is gonna be the big one in the conference for years to come
Edit: Look at us getting the best commentators for games in primetime where as we would have been thrown on espn+ with some college kid interning from his communications class commentating for AAC basketball
Say that son, we all know it's true. AAC
Best hype game would be v.
Houston or
Memphis this year and obviously
Cinci generally, off year this year, off-coach???
BIG EAST HYPE GAMES w/ the trimmings: Outstanding overall FOX product, with significantly better broadcasting talent.
Call it a NE quirk, but love tri-state former Big East analyst guys like Tarik Turner and of course Donny Marshall. Those guys have seen the same offensive sets and ran those sets (to some degree) repeatedly and both offer keen player insight, educating fans on what to look for throughout the game, which most fans love.
BOX OFFICE RIVALS: Gus and RAF games
Nova
Seton Hall
Creighton
Great weekday Events (certain for Sportscenter highlights)
Providence (local, vintage Big East)
St. John's - same, plus we can claim NYC outright
Xavier (could be a rivalry if past recent history indicates)
Marquette: Former Big East member, not an OG. The games have historically been extremely exciting and well played. Never forget A.J. Price's deadly ankle-breaker sending McNeal crumpling to the floor. Price, in true "And 1 fashion" pointed at him and most importantly made the shot.
