The 2012 Big East Tournament bracket and schedule is set, with play for all teams beginning Tuesday in New York. The Georgetown Hoyas will have a one-round bye thanks to their outstanding regular season, but Saturday's loss to Marquette proved to be very costly. The loss dropped the Hoyas to fifth place, preventing them from securing a much-needed double bye.

Instead, the Hoyas will begin play on Wednesday at a little after 2 p.m. against the winner between No. 12 Pittsburgh and No. 13 St. John's. Here is a complete schedule of the tournament.
