NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, the 64-team competition that will determine the best college basketball team in the country, begins on Thursday, March 20, 2025 (3/20/25) with the first round of competition.

Sports fans can also catch live games for the NCAA March Madness on TNT Sports (which includes TNT, TBS and truTV). Unless you have cable, though, your viewing options are limited. Cord-cutters don’t need to spend hundreds of dollars on a cable package in order to get access to basketball games and other TNT content — there are affordable streaming options such as live TV streamers that’ll give you instant access and for a fraction of the price.
