After last year's NCAA Tournament was canceled due to COVID-19, March Madness is set to return in 2021.
This year's schedule will look a bit different compared to years past.
For starters, the entire tournament will take place in the city of Indianapolis to serve as a bubble for the teams.
The First Four games will all be played on one day – Thursday, March 18 – the first time that has happened since the NCAA expanded the tournament to include four play-in games.
Because all those games will be on Thursday, that means that the tournament itself will officially tip-off on a Friday and the first "weekend" will extend into Monday.
The Elite Eight will also be played on a Monday and Tuesday as well.
Here is the complete TV schedule for 2021 March Madness:
