2025 NCAA Tournament schedule: March Madness bracket, game dates, locations, tip times, TV channels

The March Madness bracket was officially reveled on Selection Sunday, college basketball fans. That means it’s now time to get down to the fun part: watching as much hardwood action as possible throughout the 2025 NCAA Tournament. CBS Sports is here to provide you with the details you need most: when and how to watch every game on the March Madness schedule.

So what are you waiting for — an invitation? Grab that calendar and jotting these dates down accordingly. 

Selection Sunday simply marked the first day of a three-week-long sprint to a finish line filled with confetti, cut-down nets and a championship trophy. March Madness will begin with 68 teams still alive in the First Four before paring down to 64, then 32 … all the way down to the Final Four, and ultimately, a national champion.

Games will be played across the country from the early afternoon to late evening. In order to get your fill of college basketball, you’ll need to be diligent — and you’ll probably need to find multiple screens whether TVs, laptops or phones.

Brackets are here! Get back in your pools and join our Men’s and Women’s Challenges for the chance to win a new Nissan Armada and Final FourⓇ trips!

The dates and sites for every 2025 NCAA Tournament game are listed below starting with First Four action from Dayton, Ohio, on March 18 and culminating with the Final Four and NCAA championship game on April 5 and 7 at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.

The road to the Final Four is a long but worthwhile journey, so be sure to check in often as CBS Sports will update this page every time the NCAA Tournament schedule is adjusted. Games will be aired across CBS, TNT, TBS and truTV and available on March Madness Live. All games airing on CBS will also be available to Paramount+ subscribers.
