NCAA Bracket 2013: Tournament TV Schedule and Full Coverage Map
The 68-team field is set and the TV schedule will soon follow, giving college basketball fans a chance to see every single game of the 2013 NCAA tournament.
The four No. 1 seeds at March Madness will be Louisville, Gonzaga, Kansas and Indiana, but the first and only time all four No. 1 seeds made it to the Final Four was 2008. We all know that the upset is alive and well in college basketball today—particularly this season.
The rest of the field includes mid-majors Creighton, Saint Louis, Butler and Virginia Commonwealth—all teams looking to dance past what their seeds and tournament resumes predict them to do.
