The "Big Dance" is here. Luckily for March Madness fans, every game of the NCAA Tournament can be streamed online without cable.
The First Four kicked off the action this week, with four squads moving into the 64-team bracket. The first round will bring the chaos and upsets that college hoops fans love so much.
Will Sarah Strong and Azzi Fudd lead UConn to back-to-back titles? Or will another contender emerge? Programs like UCLA, Texas, Iowa, South Carolina and LSU are all hoping to hoist the trophy.
