NCAA Women’s basketball tournament 2016: Times, TV schedule and live stream for Final Four

How to watch the Final Four on Sunday, featuring Connecticut-Oregon State and Syracuse-Washington semifinals.

The NCAA Women’s basketball tournament is down to the Final Four.

It’s Connecticut against the field, with Geno Auriemma’s Huskies looking as brilliant as ever. They’re the presumed victors until somebody beats them, but the Final Four has a lot of story lines worth watching. Washington emerged as a Cinderella No. 7 seed from the Lexington Region to face another unlikely regional winner, Sioux Falls No. 4 Syracuse, in one national semifinal. The other semifinal pits top overall seed UConn against No. 2 Dallas Region seed Oregon State, and the Huskies are a preposterous 23-point favorite. (Remember, this is the Final Four. That’s how good they are.)

The games start Sunday night at Indianapolis’ Bankers Life Fieldhouse. It’s very likely that UConn is going to bulldoze the competition, starting with Oregon State. But that doesn’t make this a set of games any less worth watching. It’s either going to be a chance to watch top-end athletic dominance on a championship stage, or it’s going to be a chance to watch a genuinely monumental upset. Either will be front-page news, and it’s all about to get started.

Here’s the full schedule with TV and streaming information for Sunday’s semifinals. All times are Eastern.
