We have ourselves an NCAA Tournament, folks. With the first round down and upsets aplenty, second round action gets underway Saturday with eight games sprinkled about the day where eight teams will punch Sweet 16 tickets — and another eight will get sent packing.
Saturday’s slate begins just after noon ET with a 12:10 p.m. tip on CBS starting with No. 13 seed Furman and No. 5 seed San Diego State in the first of a triple header on CBS to open the day in standalone games. The second game gives us No. 4 seed Tennessee and No. 5 seed Duke at 2:40 p.m. followed by No. 1 seed Kansas and No. 8 seed Arkansas.
Staggered throughout the rest of the evening is a batch of goods the basketball gods gifted us that includes No. 1 seed Houston playing in a quasi road environment in Birmingham vs. No. 9 seed Auburn, No. 2 seed Texas drawing a red hot Pen State team and No. 2 seed UCLA and No. 1 seed Alabama wrapping the night in succession. You can find all the tip times and the full schedule of action in the details below. Â
Let’s take a look at the 2023 March Madness announcing teams as well as the complete schedule for the 2023 NCAA Tournament.
