NFL Draft is coming up!
The 68-team fields for the men’s and women’s NCAA Tournament brackets will be revealed on Sunday, March 17, with the former at 6 p.m. ET and the latter at 8 p.m. ET. Picks made in 2024 March Madness pools could favor the No. 1 seeds. Since 1982, at least one No. 1 seed in the Women’s NCAA Tournament has made the Final Four every year, while a 1-seed has won 26 national titles on the men’s side since 1979.
UConn is the reigning men’s champ and also owns the distinction of being the only school with top-10 ranked teams on both the men’s and women’s side. Meanwhile, Houston and Purdue have battled the Huskies men as the No. 1 overall seed all year, while South Carolina is unquestionably the top team on the women’s side. The Gamecocks are hoping to remain unscathed in the 2024 NCAA Tournament and complete a perfect season, but can they avoid an upset, unlike last year when it fell to Caitlin Clark and Iowa? With the action so close, now is the time to set up your 2024 March Madness pool.

Now that you know where to play 2024 NCAA Men’s Bracket Games, here are some teams to watch as the 2024 NCAA Tournament approaches:
North Carolina Tar Heels: The Tar Heels missed the NCAA Tournament last season, but they’ve been among the most consistent teams this season. UNC finished the regular season with a 17-3 record in conference play, helping the Tar Heels win their 33rd regular-season ACC title. RJ Davis paces the Tar Heels in scoring, entering postseason play averaging 21.1 points per game. The senior guard was named ACC Player of the Year and he’ll look to lead North Carolina to its first title since 2017.
Purdue Boilermakers: The Boilermakers were in this same position a year ago as a No. 1 seed, only to be upset by No. 16 FDU. However, this season, the Boilermakers have a greater margin of victory than in 2022-23 despite playing a more difficult schedule. Led by reigning National Player of the Year Zach Edey, Purdue is 7-0 versus ranked teams entering the 2024 NCAA Tournament, compared to a 3-2 mark a year ago. Plus, the team is more than just the 7-foot-4 center, as Purdue ranks second in the nation with a 41.1% mark from beyond the arc. Join the CBS Sports 2024 NCAA Men’s Bracket Game here.
Now that you know where to play 2024 NCAA Women’s Bracket Games, here are some teams to watch as the 2024 NCAA Tournament approaches:
Iowa Hawkeyes: Led by the NCAA Division I all-time leading scorer in Clark, Iowa is unparalleled on the offensive end. Iowa leads the country in 2-point percentage and 3-pointers made, showing its repertoire inside and outside the arc. The Hawkeyes’ defense is also underrated, as they allow the lowest field goal percentage and the lowest 3-point percentage in the Big 10. This is a battle-tested team with four senior starters and enters March Madness with six straight wins, all coming with the team scoring at least 93 points.
LSU Tigers: The reigning national champions went 28-5 this season, but lost the SEC Tournament championship to the South Carolina Gamecocks. Angel Reese won NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player honors a season ago and averaged 19.0 points and 13.1 rebounds per game this season. Aneesah Morrow also averaged a double-double per game (16.5 points and 10.0 rebounds) and that frontcourt tandem could present problems on the interior. The Tigers ranked second in the nation in scoring this season (86.7 points per game). Join the 2024 Women’s Bracket Game here.
