Both teams played yesterday and advance to the title game tonight at 8 p.m.  Last year Syracuse won the Big East Championship, but fizzled out in the NCAA.  The Most Outstanding Player of the tournament last year went to Hakim Warrick, all eyes will be on Sr. Guard Gerry McNamara.  This current run will in all likelihood get Syracuse in this year’s big dance.  Syracuse knocked off Georgetown last night and Pittsburgh advanced by defeated a highly-ranked Villanova team.  Most fans expected to see a Connecticut/Villnaova matchup, but most fans haven’t been disappointed by the level of play in this tournament.
