CBS Changes NCAA Tournament Selection Show Back to Bracket-First Format
Posted Mar 13, 2019
The NCAA Tournament Selection Show is returning to form. “We’re going back to basics,” CBS Sports chairman Sean McManus announced Tuesday. On Sunday, his network will air a one-hour live show with brackets released near the top of the hour. “We’re going to basically do what we used to.” Last year's fan reaction convinced CBS to shorten and simplify the show.
