March Madness 2023: Schedule, Bracket, Livestream Elite Eight Today on CBS
The final two tickets to the Final Four are on the line Sunday.
If you picked a top seed to win it all, consider your March Madness brackets busted. For the first time in NCAA men’s basketball tournament history, not one of four No. 1 seeds has advanced to the Elite Eight. Purdue and Kansas lost earlier, and on Friday the final two top-seeded teams, Alabama and Houston, were upset by a pair of No. 5 seeds, San Diego State and Miami.
After FAU held off Kansas State and UConn beat down Gonzaga, two of the four tickets to next weekend’s Final Four have been punched. Sunday brings the last two games of the Elite Eight round, with both contests set to air this afternoon on CBS.
Here’s everything you need to watch and livestream March Madness, from the Elite Eight to the Final Four and the national championship game.
What is the March Madness TV schedule?
The schedule and channels for this weekend’s remaining Elite Eight games are listed below (all times ET).
Sunday, March 26
- No. 5 San Diego State vs. No. 6 Creighton, 2:20 p.m. on CBS
- No. 2 Texas vs. No. 5 Miami (Florida), 5:05 p.m. on CBS
Here’s the remaining schedule afterward (all games are on CBS):
- Final Four: Saturday, April 1
- NCAA championship game: Monday, April 3

One No. 2 seed (Texas) is still alive, along with one No. 4 seed (UConn).
No. 9 Florida Atlantic and No. 6 Creighton, along with No. 5 Miami and No. 5 San Diego State, round out the remaining teams.
The full, updated bracket can be found on the NCAA’s website.
How can I watch March Madness?
The rest of the tournament will be shown on CBS.
Which channel is broadcasting the Final Four?
The Final Four and national championship game will air on CBS and stream on Paramount Plus.
Can I stream March Madness for free?
Go to the NCAA’s March Madness Live site or use its March Madness Live app and you’ll be able to watch games for free. You can watch March Madness Live on iOS and Android devices along with Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV and Xbox One. The app also supports AirPlay and Chromecast.
As with most things that are free, there’s a catch. Without proving you’re a pay-TV subscriber, you get only a three-hour preview, after which point you’ll need to log in to continue watching.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 Might Come in 5G and 4G Cellular Models
If the rumor proves true, the 5G Galaxy Watch Ultra would rival the 5G-enabled $799 Apple Watch Ultra 3 that debuted last fall.
Samsung’s next high-end Galaxy Watch could support faster 5G speeds, but if this leak is true, it will depend on where you live. The rumored Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 might come in 5G and 4G cellular models, with availability for each smartwatch depending on the country.
According to the Dutch website Galaxy Club (and spotted by SamMobile), Samsung’s servers may have revealed a series of model numbers that point to 5G, 4G and Wi-Fi-enabled editions of the next Galaxy Watch Ultra, which would succeed the original model that debuted in 2024.
A representative for Samsung did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Galaxy Club website speculates that the 5G edition would be sold in the US and Korean markets, while the 4G edition would sell in the rest of the world. In the US, a 5G version of the Galaxy Watch Ultra would rival the 5G-enabled $799 Apple Watch Ultra 3, which debuted last fall. The 4G edition would have broader compatibility worldwide, since the earlier network is far more established.
It will likely be a few months until we hear anything official about the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. Samsung typically unveils its new watches in the summer alongside its Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip foldable phones. Last year, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Watch 8 and the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, but otherwise left the prior 2024 Ultra in the lineup for those looking for a larger 47mm smartwatch.
