Power conference tournaments tip off this week

The college basketball regular season is in the books. Now the madness begins for 30 teams - especially those on the proverbial bubble to make the NCAA tournament.

Automatic bids to the "Big Dance" are handed out to the 30 conference tournament champions, so for many teams, this is their only chance to get in. Just ask Indiana State (picked to finish seventh in the Missouri Valley Conference), which upset top seed Missouri State to win the conference title Sunday night.

The Big East tourney figures to be one of the most entertaining and competitive- with 9 teams ranked in the top 25. Meanwhile in the ACC bracket, North Carolina and Duke could potentially meet in the final with both teams still having a shot at getting a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

In addition to Indiana State, Belmont (Atlantic Sun), UNC Asheville (Big South) and Morehead State (Ohio Valley) have already punched their tickets to the "Big Dance."
