2013 NCAA Tournament Schedule: Watch Thursday’s Games Live Online


The 2013 NCAA Tournament is here, and March Madness kicks off on Thursday with some intriguing matchups that you can watch live online.

Two of the tournament’s top seeds — Louisville and Gonzaga — open up their tournament runs while some potential upset picks are spread out throughout the day.

Those stuck at work might want to find their way to the office lounge, as there are a number of good games scheduled for early in the day. This includes the No. 11 Bucknell Bisons against the No. 6 Butler Bulldogs, in what could be a potential upset. The Bisons have one of best players in the country that you’ve likely never heard of, 6-foot-11 center Mike Muscala, an NBA prospect who can lead Bucknell on a tournament run.

Thursday’s schedule of NCAA Tournament games end up with a look into what Syracuse team shows up for the tournament — the one that stumbled through the latter half of the season, or the one that caught fire in the last ever Big East Tournament.

This game could either be the return of the Orange or a big upset in the making as the No. 13 Montana Grizzlies have the chops to take on ‘Cuse.

All of the games can be watched live online as CBS is streaming the NCAA Tournament on its website, though it requires authentication from your cable provider to watch games on TruTV and TNT.
