March Madness 2024 is in full swing as the Sweet 16 round is about to kick off tonight, March 28.

The field of 68 has narrowed down to the best 16 teams in the country in just one week; from there, only eight will move on to the Elite Eight round.

All four No. 1 seeds — defending national champions UConn, UNC, Houston, and Purdue — remain in the competition, and of the other 12 teams, just one is a double-digit seeded team (NC State, the No. 11 seed). Due to a few key upsets in the first round, no perfect brackets remain in play, per CNN.

Eight games will take place over two nights, and luckily, you can watch all of them with just one streaming subscription: Hulu + Live TV.

Below, we’ve broken down everything you need to know, from how to watch the games to the bracket and schedule.

How to Watch the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight Games on Hulu:

Since the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight games are airing on CBS and TBS, you can stream all of them with a subscription to Hulu + Live TV. You’ll also be able to stream the National Championship game on Hulu + Live TV, since it’s airing on TBS.

Hulu + Live TV costs $76.99/month and comes with over 90 live channels and unlimited DVR. The perks don’t stop there, though — Hulu + Live TV also comes with access to Hulu’s main streaming library with ads, plus subscriptions to ad-supported Disney+ and ESPN+ included in the monthly price.

Subscribing to that streaming bundle on its own will cost you $14.99/month, so when you think about it, the Live TV subscription is really only $62.00/month.
