Here's what important regions/cities will be seeing:
New York/Tri-State Area
12:30 - Robert Morris/Villanova
2:30 - North Texas/Kansas St
7:00 - Ohio/Georgetown
9:30 - Lehigh/Kansas
- No surprise that NYC gets the 2 Big East games. The northeast gets Lehigh/Kansas as the #1 seed default, but there will definitely be switching around at night.
Los Angeles/Southern California
12:30 - Florida vs BYU
2:30 - North Texas/Kansas St
7:00 - Washington/Marquette
9:30 - SDSU/Tennessee
- Interesting at the 2:30 slot that they're going with the #2 Kansas St over California team St. Mary's vs Richmond.
Chicago
12:30 - Old Dominion vs Notre Dame
2:30 - North Texas/Kansas St
7:00 - Washington/Marquette
9:30 - Lehigh/Kansas
- With no Midwest teams playing at 2:30 & 7:30, Chicago simply gets the default top seed games in those slots.

Nothing fun about it. CBS one channel coverage sucks. Try to watch a game and they cut away. And if some dumb ass producer doesn't like your team, you won't see them. Stupid decision by the NCAA. Give the games to some network that will actually show them. I don't care about BYU-Florida. Might as well be a soap opera or infomercial. And fans of those teams would feel the same way if they had to watch some teams from another regional instead of their teams. March Sadness is CBS.
Every game is on the
