Big South men’s tournament 2025: Bracket, schedule, scores, teams, and more

Let’s have some fun.

The highest-ranked team in the NET rankings out of the Big South conference is High Point University, checking in at No. 86 overall with their 26-5 record. Ken Pomeroy’s rankings have High Point at No. 88.

The next team in the conference? That would be Radford. Their 17-12 record has Radford ranked 164 in the NET, and 156 in Pomeroy’s set of rankings.

For those wondering, the Highlanders are the No. 4 seed in the Big Conference tournament. Just above them are UNC Asheville and Winthrop, two teams that have defeated Radford this season.

But a team from the Big South is headed to the Big Dance. Will it be High Point, as expected, or will a true Cinderella emerge out of the Big South Conference Tournament this week in Johnson City, Tennessee? Interestingly enough unlike some other conferences, High Point as the No. 1 seed only gets a bye into the quarterfinals, meaning they will need to win three games to reach the NCAA tournament.

Here is the bracket, along with the schedule of games.
