Marsh Madness is entering the business end.
March Madness goes to another level this week with the Men’s and Women’s Sweet 16 portion of the NCAA College Basketball National Championship getting underway, live across ESPN.
We started with 68 but now just 16 teams remain in the hunt for the NCAA College Basketball Championship.
The Men’s Sweet 16 side of the draw starts on Friday March 25 at 10am AEDT.
The Sweet 16 action begins in blockbuster fashion on Friday as #1 seed Gonzaga takes on #4 Arkansas, whilst #2 Villanova meet #11 ranked outsiders Michigan, in the first of Friday’s matches starting from 10am AEDT.
They will be followed by another huge clash from 12.30pm AEDT on Friday, where hot contenders Duke meet #3 ranked Texas Tech.
ESPN will have live whip-around coverage across Men’s Sweet 16 games scheduled for both Friday and Saturday, ensuring hoops fans see all the best action from all matches on court.
The Women’s Sweet 16 will also begin on Saturday March 26, live on ESPN2 from 10am AEDT.
Saturday’s action is highlighted by #1 seed South Carolina, as they battle #5 UNC and a heavyweight clash between favourites Stanford and #4 ranked Maryland.
The College Basketball National Championship is a single elimination tournament, meaning there is no tomorrow for the losers. There is also little rest for the winners.
The Men’s Elite 8 matches begins on Sunday March 27, with the Women’s Elite 8 starting on Monday March 28.
ESPN will have live coverage across the Men’s and Women’s Sweet 16, Elite 8, Final Four and NCAA Championship games exclusively.
All live games and individual reairs for the Men’s, Women’s and NIT tournaments will be available to watch through the ESPN App also.*
