A tournament that takes over the entire country will receive its full bracket in just a few hours from now with the Selection Sunday release show.

In the hours that will follow the unveiling of the men's 2025 NCAA Tournament bracket, college basketball fans around the country — die-hard and first-time viewers alike — will begin analyzing the field and making their picks on who will cut down the nets in San Antonio. The SEC and Big Ten look well positioned to have a successful March this year, with a combined 22 of its teams appearing in projected NCAA Tournament brackets, including USA TODAY's.

Last year's tournament brought out unsung heroes, such as Oakland's Jack Gohlke and NC State's DJ Burns. It also created a storyline that had not been met in nearly two decades, when UConn became the first team since Florida in 2006-07 to repeat as national champions.

So what will be the storylines for this year? Everything is on the line, and that's the beauty of this unpredictable tournament.

Here's what you need to know for the 2025 NCAA Tournament from TV schedules, results, streaming options, game site information, national championship betting odds and much more:
