This college basketball TV schedule lists today's men's and women's NCAA games with tip-off time and the channel each is showing on, from early-season tournaments through conference play and March Madness.
Regular-season games are spread widely across ESPN's family of channels (including ESPN2 and ESPNU), FOX, CBS and conference-owned networks like the Big Ten Network and ACC Network, with the exact channel depending heavily on which conference and which teams are playing. National broadcasts tend to concentrate on marquee non-conference matchups and ranked-versus-ranked games, while a large share of midweek conference games are carried primarily on conference networks rather than the biggest national channels.
Coverage changes dramatically once the postseason begins. The men's NCAA Tournament, march madness tv schedule included, is broadcast nationally across CBS, TBS, TNT and truTV, with every tournament game nationally televised across those four channels through the entire bracket. The women's tournament has similarly expanded its national footprint on ESPN's channels in recent years, reflecting the broader growth in women's college basketball today that's driven both viewership and broadcast investment.
Because there are hundreds of Division I programs playing most nights of the week, this page focuses on games with a confirmed national or widely available broadcast rather than every matchup across every conference. For smaller-conference or non-televised games, that conference's own streaming package is usually the more complete source. For most non-marquee games, the broadcast window isn't locked in until the week of the game itself.
Conference realignment in recent years has also shuffled which network carries which league, so a program that moved conferences may have changed its primary broadcast home along with it, which is worth keeping in mind if a team's usual channel suddenly looks different from last season.
Regular-season college basketball follows conference TV deals. March Madness has its own national deal.
