How to watch March Madness 2025:
Watch ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNews, ABC and ESPN+ Hulu + Live TV
Hulu's live TV tier includes every channel you'll need to watch the women's NCAA tournament (and the men's!). For $82.99/month, you'll get live ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNews, ABC and access to ESPN+, plus CBS, TBS, TNT and TruTV for all the men's games too.
On top of all that live TV, you'll get access to regular Hulu which offers Hulu Originals and FX shows and Disney+. You can try all of this free for three days, too! Try free for 3 days at Hulu
Watch TBS, TNT, TruTV, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU and ESPNews Sling Orange + Blue and Sports Extra add-on
Sling doesn't offer a free trial these days, and March Madness lasts longer than your standard trial would. It's still a solid option to catch most games in the tournament. Emphasis on most, because one big blindspot for Sling is that it doesn't carry CBS — though you can still authenticate via Sling on the march Madness website to watch CBS coverage live through your phone or laptop, but not your TV.
That said, for $48 for your first month of Sling Orange + Blue and the Sports Extra add-on, you can catch all the games on TBS, TNT, TruTV, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3, ESPNU, ESPNews and ABC. $48 for your first month at Sling

Where ESPN's 'College GameDay' will be in Week 0
The wait for the 2025 college football season is finally ending. The season begins with a Week 0 clash between No. 21 Iowa State and No. 20 Kansas State in Dublin, Ireland, at noon ET on Saturday, Aug. 23. Unlike last year, ESPN's beloved college football pregame show "College GameDay" will not be airing from Dublin, Ireland, in Week 0. Instead, ESPN is scheduled to have an episode of "SportsCenter" at 9 a.m. ET and then "College Football Countdown" at 10 a.m. ET. Fans wanting more college football coverage can also tune into a preseason edition of the "Herbie Awards" on ESPN2 at 9 a.m. ET. College football fans will have to wait until Week 1 for the return of GameDay, which will be hosting Lee Corso's final show during ahead of the No. 1 Texas Longhorns at No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes game on Saturday, Aug. 30. GameDay's 2025 season coverage will begin at 9 a.m. ET on Aug. 30 from Columbus, Ohio, on ESPN. Lee Corso, Nick Saban, Kirk Herbstreit, Rece Davis, Desmond Howard and Pat McAfee all serve as analysts for GameDay. It is unclear why GameDay is not attending the Iowa State vs. Kansas State game, but we suspect it is to limit the amount of travel the hosts have to do over the course of the season. Flights to Dublin are over six and 1/2 hours from New York City and Dublin has a five hour time difference from the East Coast. College football's expanded playoff and schedule meant that GameDay hosted 22 different shows last year, which is far more than GameDay attended in previous years.

MSU hoops' Tom Izzo feels he's 'adjusted to this new era' of college basketball
Tom Izzo: 'I've adjusted to this new era more than I think. Sure, there have been some rough spots. But players are the most important thing to me.' The college basketball world is ever changing, and Spartans head coach Tom Izzo believes he's adjusted more than many believe. Izzo was speaking at the Larry Shyatt's coaching clinic on Wednesday, where he addressed a number of items in the world of college basketball. One of which was the ever changing nature of the college basketball landscape and how he's been forced to change his philosophy on a number of things. Per a post on social media from college basketball insider and reporter Jeff Goodman, Izzo believes he has "adjusted" more than he thinks, and acknowledged that it wasn't always easy for him to make the necessary changes. 'I've adjusted to this new era more than I think," Izzo said during the coaching clinic. "Sure, there have been some rough spots. But players are the most important thing to me.' This past year's success on the court for the Spartans helps vindicate that statement from Izzo, with Michigan State claiming the Big Ten title by more than three games and reaching the Elite Eight in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2019. Hearing Izzo acknowledge that there have "been some rough spots" should also be promising for fans since it shows he isn't set in his old ways and is clearly adjusting to the new era of college basketball.

Oklahoma QB John Mateer named to Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award watch list
The buzz surrounding the Oklahoma Sooners' new starting quarterback, John Mateer. He's been included on a number of watch lists this offseason and is a dark horse candidate to contend for the Heisman Trophy. On Wednesday, Mateer was included on another watch list, this time for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award. The Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award goes to the offensive player of the year who played his high school or college football in the state of Texas or was born in Texas. Oklahoma Sooners quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray won the awards in back-to-back seasons during their Heisman runs in 2017 and 2018. The two were standout quarterbacks in Texas high school football and started their careers at universities in the state of Texas before transferring to Oklahoma. Mateer could be on a similar path with the Sooners in 2025. Though there are more unknowns on the offensive side of the ball than there were when OU entered the 2017 or 2018 seasons, Mateer could very well be the answer to a lot of the questions with his dual-threat ability. The former three-star quarterback has been lauded for his ability to make plays when things break down and for his competitive drive. And if he's able to translate that to Oklahoma and the SEC, Mateer could end the season in the running for a number of postseason awards.
