How to view March Madness Basketball Games in 2025:
NCAA March Madness Basketball Games are broadcast via CBS Sports and TNT sports channels, including CBS, TNT, TBS and TrutV, with CBS games that also stream on Paramount+ and TBS/TBS/Trutv games that stream on Max. These channels are also available on platforms, including DirectV, Hulu with Live TV and Sling. (Note that although we usually love Fubo for sport, it does not wear TNT, TBS and Trutv, where you will find a majority of March Madness Games.)
Every way to watch NCAA March Madness matches this season:
Max, aka “The One to Watch” has Select Live Sports available through his Bleacher Report Sports Add-On, which is included for free for advertising-free Max subscribers. (If you subscribe to MAX’s advertisement-supported plan, you should have access to the B/R-Add-on content until 30 March).
On top of March Madness Games on TBS, TNT and Trutv, has Max Buzzy shows, including The White Lotus, The Last of Us, House of the Dragon, Dune: Prophecy And more.
AD Support Max starts at $ 10/month. The standard plan (that free b/r free channel) costs $ 17/month.
$ 16.99/month at Max
Nowadays, Sling does not offer a free trial period and March Madness takes longer than your standard test. It is still a solid option to catch most games in the tournament. The emphasis on most, because a large blind spot for sling is that it does not wear CBS.
That said, for $ 45 for your first month of Sling Orange + Blue and the Sports Extra Add-On, you can catch all games on TBS, TNT, Trutv, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3, ESPNU, ESPNEWS and ABC.
$ 48 for your first month at Sling
Paramount+ has two levels available: an ad supported layer of $ 8/month and a premium layer of $ 13/month that is advertising-free and has live access to your local CBS channel (and access to Showtime), which you need to stream selected March Madness games.
At the moment Paramount+ still offers a free trial version – so new subscribers can register to view selection Sunday and the first four, plus view the rest of the Paramount+ Library for free for seven days.
