Duke’s battle against top-seeded Houston in the Sweet 16 of this year’s NCAA Tournament will cause some Blue Devils fans to stay up past their bedtimes on Friday.
The Blue Devils and the Cougars will be the second CBS game on Friday, meaning their game will not start until NC State and Marquette finish. The Wolfpack and the Golden Eagles will tip off at around 7:10 p.m. ET, leaving Duke and Houston to start after 9:30 p.m.
Should the Blue Devils beat Houston, they would play the winner of that NC State-Marquette game for a ticket to the Final Four.
Date: Friday, March 29
Time: 9:40 p.m. ET (approximately)
Network: CBS
Streaming: Paramount Plus
The same CBS announcer crew from Duke’s first two tournament games will handle the broadcast work. Blue Devils legend Grant Hill will be an analyst alongside Bill Raftery, and Ian Eagle will provide the play-by-play. Tracy Wolfson will be the game’s sideline reporter.
The game will take place at American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.
