Men’s College Basketball wraps another stellar season with coverage on ESPN of final regular season games – led by Indiana hosting Ohio State and Duke facing North Carolina – select Conference Championship games, among them the WCC and ACC, and the season’s crowning event, the 2013 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. Sixty-eight teams take the court as of March 19, all battling to win their region and advance to the Final Four in April to challenge for the national championship title.

While early-season predictions run the gamut, teams expected to survive to make it to the Big Dance are led by the Big Ten’s Indiana and Michigan, the Big East’s Louisville and Syracuse, defending national champions Kentucky of the SEC, traditional ACC contenders North Carolina State and Duke, and the Big 12’s Kansas.

ESPN’s coverage of Men’s College Basketball airs LIVE and on short-turnaround throughout the season, with coverage this month highlighted by the Big East Conference Tournament from Madison Square Garden in New York, the postseason NIT and the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, beginning March 19 and continuing all month. Stay tuned next month for coverage of the Final Four airing from the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia.
