NCAA Sweet 16 Fixtures: Watch Live March Madness

Here’s how to watch Sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament to keep up with March Madness.

The second weekend of March Madness will be here sooner rather than later, as it will be the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight portion of the NCAA Tournament.

When everyone’s group was broken by one great disappointment after another, 16 teams remained alive to claim the national championship title. From top-seeded race car driver Gonzaga Bulldogs to lucky 15th-seeded Saint Peter’s Peacocks, there’s a team that everyone can regroup later in the second weekend of the tournament. There is also some green blood left over.

Here’s the blocker for the Sweet 16 and how to watch all eight matches of the tournament.
