It’s March Madness, baby! Between now and April 4, 67 games will be played in the 2016 NCAA March Madness tournament. It’s the most exciting three weeks in all of sports, bar none. Here’s how to enjoy tonight’s Midwest regional matchup between the #15 Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders and the #10 Syracuse Orange.

WHAT TIME DOES THE MIDDLE TENNESSEE VS. SYRACUSE GAME START?

The Blue Raiders and Orange will tip off at 6:10 p.m. ET.

HOW CAN I LIVE STREAM THE MIDDLE TENNESSEE VS. SYRACUSE GAME?

TNT has the rights to broadcast this game. The Blue Raiders/Orange game is being livestreamed across a variety of platforms: NCAA.com, the NCAA March Madness Live app, and over at TNT. You can also live stream the games if you are a Sling TV subscriber. (More on that below.)

HOW CAN I GET THE MARCH MADNESS APP?

The NCAA March Madness Live app is free to download (yay!), and available for iOS, Windows 10, and Android devices. March Madness Live is also available for Amazon Fire TV consoles, Apple TV (just search “NCAA March Madness Live” in the tvOS App Store), as well as your Roku unit. That’s the good news. The bad news? You have to be an authenticated cable subscriber —or, at least, have access to an authenticated cable subscriber’s login and password details!— to watch.

HOW CAN I GET THE WATCH TNT APP?

If you’re on a desktop or laptop computer, all you need to do is point your browser towards tntdrama.com/watchtnt and you’ll be golden. TNT also has an app that’s available for iOS or Android, and Windows devices. Again, we hate to be the bearer of bad news here, but you’re gonna need a cable login/password to watch.

HOW CAN I GET SLING TV?

This is a terrific time to check out Sling TV, which includes access to TBS and TNT (along with a bunch of other awesome networks like ESPN, HGTV and more). Sling TV is also currently offering subscribers a free one-week trial of the service, so what better time to give it a whirl than the next four days when nearly 40 different games will be played? If you’re a college hoops superfan, we have even better news for you! Sling TV’s “Best of Live TV” subscribers will have access to a free preview of truTV throughout the tournament (March 13-April 12), so they don’t need to upgrade to Lifestyle Extra (where truTV normally lives at an extra charge of $5/mo.) to see all the truTV coverage. Now that’s good customer service!
