NCAA March Madness 2019: Full Brackets, Schedule, And Every Team In The NCAA Basketball Tournament
It is once again that time of year when people wish they could have time off from work to sit back and watch the NCAA Basketball Tournament. March Madness 2019 is upon us, and it’s time to see which of the 68 teams are going to advance, which will be upset, and how many dramatic finishes can be had. With that, you need to know the full schedule, which TV stations to watch the games on, and who ended up where on Selection Sunday.
The First Four will officially begin playing on Tuesday, March 19, 2019, and will continue into March 20. Those games will be held in Dayton, Ohio, and can be seen on Tru TV or on the March Madness Live live stream, which will carry the entire tournament.
Of course, there were some teams which ended up having their bubble burst as they didn’t make it into the tournament. While they would rather be in the NCAA tourney, they may end up in the National Invitational Tournament (NIT), which means their season isn’t quite over just yet.
The first and second rounds of the 2019 tournament will take place from March 21-24, and the games will happen in multiple cities. All of those games will be broadcast on CBS, TBS, Tru TV, and TNT, as well as the live stream mentioned above.
Now, let’s see who ended up where and the seed that each team in the tournament received.
