The number of FS1 telecasts again will top 100.  All 90 regular-season games will be televised.  Play-by-play announcer Gus Johnson along with analysts Bill Raftery and Jim Jackson are back to form the FOX Sports lead announce teams. 

The BIG EAST is coming off a season that had all 10 teams earning postseason invitations for the first time in the history of conference, which celebrated its 40th birthday on May 29.  Over the first six years of the 10-team BIG EAST, the league has earned 32 NCAA Tournament invitations, averaging more than five NCAA bids per season.     
 
FOX and FS1 again serve as the television home of the BIG EAST Tournament at Madison Square Garden.  The 2020 tourney will be played March 11-14.  The World's Most Famous Arena will host the BIG EAST Tournament for the 38th consecutive year.  It's college basketball's longest running conference tournament held at the same venue.  The FOX broadcast network will carry the championship game at 6:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, March 14.  All other rounds, which total eight games, will be telecast on FS1.
 
BIG EAST basketball during the 2019-20 season will also be seen on the BIG EAST Digital Network.  The FOX Sports App provides live streaming video of FOX Sports content at home or on-the-go.  FOX Sports App users, who are also subscribers of participating video providers, can live stream men's basketball telecasts carried on the FOX broadcast network, FS1 and FS2.  Games televised on the FOX Sports Regional Networks can be streamed on FOX Sports GO.
