In addition to extensive studio coverage across ESPN's domestic platforms, ESPN International will televise the semifinals (Saturday, April 5, beginning at 6 p.m.) and championship (Monday, April 7, at 9 p.m.) with Dan Shulman, Bilas and Vitale on the call.

College GameDay

ESPN and ESPNU will combine to televise three College GameDay shows from two different sets in Fort Worth's Sundance Square.
