The Big East is ranked as the fifth-best league in college men’s basketball by KenPom – behind only the Big 10, Big 12, SEC and ACC. There are only two programs in the conference outside of KenPom’s top-100 teams in the nation and four inside the top-50.
UConn men’s basketball head coach Dan Hurley said that he believes six teams have “proven themselves to be NCAA [Tournament] caliber” during his press conference Friday.
With just two weeks remaining in the regular season, the postseason picture is becoming clearer by the day.
