The 2016 NCAA Tournament kicks off this Tuesday evening in Dayton with the First Four, and it concludes with the National Championship Game on April 4th in Houston, and on a new network! That's right, this will be the first year that the National Championship will be on TBS, along with the famous teamcasts on TNT and truTV. We also have some changes to tip times this year.
So, keeping all of that in mind, let's take a look at the television and announcing schedule for this year's edition of March Madness.
