Wisconsin men’s basketball: tip time, announcers and channel announced for first round game

As announced on Selection Sunday, the 9-seed Wisconsin Badgers will be taking on the 8-seed North Carolina Tar Heels in the South Region on Friday. Later on in the evening, the tip-time, channel and announcers were, uh, announced so y’all could start planning out your day.

The Badgers will open the NCAA Tournament at 6:10 p.m CST on Friday evening and will be playing on the mothership, CBS. The game will take place in a traditional house of horrors for the Badgers, Mackey Arena in West Lafayette, Ind., but at least Purdue won’t be the opponent this time.
