March Madness 2026: How to watch the Florida vs. Prairie View first-round game tonight in the men's NCAA basketball tournament
· Yahoo Sports
It's a blessing and a curse to win a First Four game at March Madness, knowing that even if you make it to the first round, you'll enter as an underdog and have to face a top seed. No. 16 Prairie View A&M managed to defeat Lehigh University earlier this week to advance to the men's first round, but they'll face No. 1 seed Florida, and Florida is predicted not just to win, they're a 35.5 point favorite. The game tips off Friday at 9:25 p.m. ET on TNT and HBO Max.
For a list of key dates, teams, and how to watch every March Madness game, we've got you covered. Here's a look at how to watch the entire NCAA tournament, from the First Round right up to the Championship Final.
