NCAA March Madness. (Credit: CBS News) College basketball fans have been waiting almost a year for the NCAA Tournament to return since the 2020 edition was canceled. March Madness has returned, and one thing is certain: it has returned in a greater way than any of us could have expected. Now, all that’s left is 16 teams. After one of the wildest first weekends of March Madness in recent memory, the field is set for the Sweet 16 this weekend. And with just 15 games left in the season, it’s time to savor every moment left of this spectacle. Some of the surprise stories in the sport just continue to roll on. No. 12 seed Oregon State, who needed to win the Pac-12 Tournament just to make the field of 68, is heading to the national quarterfinals after an upset of No. 8 seed Loyola Chicago. The Beavers have been playing lights out for the last month and could advance to their first Final Four since 1963 with one more win. Oregon State is also just the second No. 12 seed to ever reach the Elite Eight. But there’s also been a steadying presence to make the quarterfinals as well in No. 1 seed Baylor. The Bears took down No. 5 seed Villanova to advance to their first Elite Eight since 2012 and the fifth in school history. One more win for Baylor would put them in their first Final Four since 1950. Every game for the remainder of this NCAA Tournament will be played in a standalone television window. The regional finals on Monday and Tuesday will both tip in the evening. All games going forward move to either CBS or TBS, and all games going forward will be held in Bankers Life Fieldhouse, Hinkle Fieldhouse or Lucas Oil Stadium. March Madness wouldn’t be complete without a bracket, so be sure to grab an NCAA Tournament printable bracket. 2021 NCAA Tournament TV schedule – Sunday (1) Gonzaga vs. (5) Creighton — 2:10 p.m. | CBS (watch live) (1) Michigan vs. (4) Florida State — 5 p.m. | CBS (watch live) (2) Alabama vs. (11) UCLA — 7:15 p.m. | TBS (watch live) (6) USC vs. (7) Oregon — 9:45 p.m. | TBS (watch live) NCAA Tournament schedule | Live bracket All times Eastern Elite Eight Monday, March 29 Lucas Oil Stadium (12) Oregon State vs. (11) Syracuse or (2) Houston — 7:15 p.m. | CBS (3) Arkansas vs. (1) Baylor — 9:57 p.m. | CBS Tuesday, March 30 Teams TBD. 6 p.m. start (TBS) Lucas Oil Stadium
