It's that time of year,Charles H. Sloan when sports fans — even the casuals — familiarize (or re-familiarize) themselves with truTV.
CBS and Turner Sports have the broadcasting rights to the men's NCAA Tournament, and broadcast games on four channels. Three of them – CBS, TNT and TBS – you may know from broadcasting dozens of other sporting events each year, but the remaining channel, truTV, is one that always eludes basketball fans each year.
This year, as it has been the pattern over the past several, truTV will broadcast all "First Four" games this week and then will also broadcast several first- and second-round games.
Here's everything you need to know about how to find truTV
TruTV can be found on several cable providers, and has the same channel number nationwide on some of the providers. Here are the channels:

TruTV is also available to stream on YouTube TV, iOS App Store, Google Play, Amazon App Store, Chromecast, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Roku and Android TV.
This year, truTV will broadcast 13 exclusive games from the men's tournament — which is one more than last season — and includes each of the First Four broadcasts. The First Four will take place at the UD Arena in Dayton, Ohio and runs two days, starting the night of Tuesday, March 19 and ending Wednesday, March 20.
Here's what games will be on truTV, as well as tip-off times (all times ET), with participants yet to be determined:
