It is the best time of the year for sports. Personal opinion.

March is the time for spring training for baseball. Hockey and NBA playoffs are right around the corner along with the NFL draft. But the best 3-4 week stretch is when the NCAA basketball tournament is going on. It all starts today as the BIG TEN has its annual league tournament.

The Spartans who are coming off a share of this year's regular-season title are the number two seed. Sparty is also looking to make it back to back tournament championships and if they can pull it off they will be a tough team to beat during the big dance. Projected to be a number three seed in the big dance.

Michigan, on the other hand, has had its ups and downs this season under first-year coach Juwan Howard. But the Wolverines have the talent to make a run. They start off as a number nine seed and would have a tough road to go down if they were to make it to the finals. Michigan won back to back BIG TEN Tournament titles in the 2017-2018 season. They are projected to be a number five seed in the NCAA tourney.
