How to watch the 2025 NCAA Championships

[bnwtwg]

How do I watch on a regular TV channel using Cable / Hulu / YouTube TV, etc?

All Thursday/Friday/Saturday daytime sessions will be on ESPNU.

The Thursday evening session is on ESPN, the Friday evening session is on ESPN2, and the Saturday evening session is on ESPN. 

How do I watch individual mats, the Octobox, and upcoming assignments?

You need an ESPN+ subscription. You may already have this if you have a Disney/Hulu bundle, or you may have it individually. 

I don't know if I have ESPN+  /  How do I get a subscription?

How much does it cost?

As cheap as $11.99 for a one-month subscription. You can also choose from the a la carte for an annual package or build custom bundles with Disney+ and Hulu

Is it easy to cancel?

Yes. Unlike some companies that offer hard to cancel wrestling subscriptions such as Flo, ESPN+ is very easy to cancel after your three day nattys bonanza.

What can I watch ESPN+ on?

Smart TVs and smart sticks like Roku and Amazon Fire. You can also watch from your computer, phone, or tablet.

Can I watch on multiple devices?

Yes! Each year I have 4 big screens and a laptop. My setup would make @jagger712 jealous.

Is everything on ESPN+? Does one even need ESPN, like for Saturday night?

Hmmmmm, Arte Johnson has an answer to that one.

Everything is available every session on ESPN+. You can view the main broadcast or individual mats/octobox.

ESPN the channel (Hulu, cable, etc) is not necessary to watch the finals Saturday evening.

ESPN+ has a very limited selection. I've had it for about a year and I'm very disappointed with it. I hope it covers NCAAs though.

It covers every mat as well as the main linear (cable) broadcast as I previously shared above.

Good deal. I wasn't referring to the NCAA tournament in particular, I was referring to my ESPN+ service on the whole, very disappointing.

All set for the tournament.  I've got every mat, the main broadcast, and Matcast saved to My Stuff in Hulu...
