After yet another dramatic college basketball season, the road to crowning a national champion is underway as the 2025 NCAA Tournament continues Tuesday in the First Four. This year’s edition of March Madness cranks up beginning on Thursday with the first-round matchups.
College basketball fans are closely monitoring their brackets while keeping an eye on how their alma mater is doing over the course of the first weekend. With some many games in the rotation, you need to know how to keep up with all the action across the four major networks and streaming on March Madness LIVE.
March Madness® is better with friends, especially when you beat them! Get your bracket pools ready now and invite your friends, family and co-workers to play.
As you know by now CBS, TBS, TNT and truTV are the exclusive broadcast carriers for March Madness. Since truTV does not carry basketball during the regular season, you might need a little help finding it when the games tip off. They have a ton of games to watch over the next few days. And we are here to help.
We’ve got your complete TV schedule with tip times, channels and announcing teams right here.
