NCAA Tournament TV Schedule 2013: Complete Start Times and Viewing Info

It's going to be extremely hard to watch every game from the 2013 NCAA tournament this year.

Lucky for you, though, CBS and Turner Sports are doing everything they can to bring you all the action on as many platforms (TV, live stream, phone, tablet) as possible to ensure you don't miss the defining moments that have made this event great for the last 75 years.

No. 1 seeds Louisville, Kansas, Gonzaga and Indiana lead the way for the 68-team field this year, but mid-majors are crashing the party with high seeds of their own (No. 4 Saint Louis, No. 5 Virginia Commonwealth and No. 6 Butler) and are looking to prove that the landscape of college basketball is changing for the foreseeable future.

We've got every game of the NCAA tournament schedule mapped out here for your convenience, so make sure to print out a copy of this article, a bracket and any other March Madness tools you think you'll need when kicking back and catching some of the most intense basketball action you'll see in the calendar year.

Games of Note

(13) Boise State vs. (13) La Salle—Wednesday, March 20, at 9:10 p.m. ET on truTV

This might be a game to decide which team gets to the heart of the tournament, but don't sleep on either one of these two mid-majors.

The Broncos have two guys (Anthony Drmic and Derrick Marks) that average at least 16 points per game, while La Salle beat Butler, VCU and Villanova this season. This should be an underrated game that you don't want to miss on Wednesday night.

(12) Oregon vs. (5) Oklahoma State—Thursday, March 21, at 4:40 p.m. ET on TNT

The Ducks won the Pac-12 tournament, but only garnered a No. 12 seed in the tournament in the process. Their draw will be tough, as the No. 5 Cowboys have freshman point guard Marcus Smart and a talented group of other players that will make things hard on the run-and-gun Ducks.

(9) Villanova vs. (8) North Carolina—Friday, March 22, at 7:20 p.m. ET on TNT

In a matchup of fringe bubble teams, Villanova and North Carolina are both aiming to prove that their conference records are just a fluke.

UNC is playing its best basketball of the season after a close loss to No. 2 Miami in the ACC tournament championship, while Villanova is a wild card at the least after knocking off three teams that were in the AP Top 25 at the time of the contest.

While conventional wisdom suggests that the always-tough Tar Heels are the clear choice, don't put away the Wildcats without confirming that they don't have the guns to beat anyone after an up-and-down season in the Big East.
