On the women’s side, Duke upset Ohio State yesterday, and Stanford beat Iowa State in overtime. Caitlin Clark’s Hawkeyes face West Virginia tonight on ESPN. (Get a free trial to DirecTV to catch the game).
While there’s still time to buy tickets to see the NCAA Tournament in person on sites such as Stubhub, VividSeats and SeatGeek, there are plenty of ways to watch the games from home. Men’s games will broadcast on CBS and Turner, while Women’s March Madness games will air on ESPN. This means that whether you’re watching on cable or online, you’ll need access to CBS, ESPN, TBS, TNT and TruTV in order to catch all the matches.
For those without cable, the best way to stream this year’s March Madness is on Sling TV, whose Orange + Blue package carries ESPN, TNT, TruTV and TBS, allowing you to catch every game of the postseason, including the Final Four and national championship game. Plus, Sling’s Orange + Blue plan is half off for your first month, bringing your first bill down to only $27.50. You can also buy Sling’s Sports Extra add-on for $11 for additional commentary and analysis.

Sling TV is going all in on March Madness this year, even unveiling a new auto record feature ahead of the NCAA tournament. For an extra $5 per month, each game is saved for three days after its live broadcast meaning users no longer need to worry about DVR or missing out on their favorite games. Looking beyond college basketball season, the streamer also has its popular NBA League Pass add-ons, allowing you to watch all of the out-of-market games (subject to local blackouts) during the professional basketball season.
