The schedule resumes today at 12:15 p.m. when Mississippi State and Baylor meet in an 8-9 matchup.
That begins a schedule of final 16 NCAA tournament games for first round. The second round begins Saturday with eight games, including Michigan's game with Texas A&M at 5:15 p.m.
Here is your viewing guide for March Madness today, with Day 2 schedules and scores to complete the first round, plus times and TV channel information. And we still have a few upsets for your bracket.

Following are significant dates: Settlement approved; settlement-related NCAA rules are effective, as adopted by the NCAA Division I Board on April 21, 2025. NIL Go portal launches. Opt-in deadline for non-defendant schools to fully commit to revenue sharing. First date for direct institutional revenue-sharing payments to student-athletes.
