NCAA tournament 2018: Time, TV schedule for Saturday’s March Madness games

After a fun first two days of the 2018 NCAA Tournament, the second round is here, beginning with eight games on Saturday with teams vying for a spot in the Sweet 16.

We get things started on Saturday with freshman sensation Collin Sexton and Alabama taking on East Region top seed Villanova in Pittsburgh (12:10 p.m. ET, CBS). Sexton scored 25 in Alabama’s first-round win over Virginia Tech and hit 6-of-9 three-pointers. He is a force of nature.

In Boise not only do we get to see if the NCAA managed to alter the oddly high camera angle at Taco Bell Arena, but we also are treated to No. 13 Buffalo, fresh off a 21-point pasting of Arizona on Thursday. Buffalo now faces a different Wildcats team in Kentucky (5:10 p.m. ET, CBS), who manged to win their first-round matchup despite not hitting a three-pointer for the first time in 30 years.

Saturday’s eight games will be televised by three different networks — CBS, TNT and TBS. All the games are available online via NCAA March Madness Live. Here are the full list of games (all times ET):
