Ok. after 2 years of spreading the tourney to 4 different channels I have concluded I like it better the old way.

I have come to the conclusion that I like all the games being on CBS at the same time.

I like how they use spread the games out just enough to see the end of every game.

Yes every once in a while there were times I wanted to see a game that they were not playing but for the most part I use to get a better feel for the whole tourney at large when they combined everything on one channel.

I find myself getting sucked into watching one lousy game only to find out I was missing out on a great game that was on another station.

Just give me the whole thing on one channel.

If there is a game I want to see from beginning to end there are many ways I can do that on the internet and other options.

I just want that redzone channel feel to the tourney that I had before where I can see the end of all the close games, skip the blowouts etc...

As a die har Cuse fan I just loved when they would go to another game for 15 minutes so I could miss the only game I want to see

The games are still spread out the same way they were. You pick which game to watch and every game is on. What is there not to like? What I didn't like was when I would be watching a game and then CBS would switch to check in on another game. Say What?

chop! that is just strange...the scores are on ever feed so you know if something interesting is going down even without internet on your laptop or smartphone working or channel switching!

Way better you can watch the whole game that your interested in, also I paid to watch the games on the internet. It cost $3.95 and you can watch multiple games there.

Yea im sure its better to have no choice in what game you watch instead of being able to pick the game you see. Also, the top scores tell you what channel the other games are too which makes it easy to navigate. Love the new way

The new way is alot better. I like having the power to see what game I want to see with a remote control in my hand instead of Greg Gumbel and crew dictating what I have to watch.

The "new way" is so much better. No comparison. How can you not like being able to decide for yourself what game you are going to watch. If you know how to operate your remote you should have no problem.

Much better this way. Thursday had Wisc and Marquette on at the same time, and Friday had Mich and Detroit. They should never play at the same time. If you are CBS Detroit and Milwaukee, who do you show? At least the viewer gets to decide.

especially when there is a good 8-9 or 7-10 and they wanna give u regional coverage of the 1-16 f that. and sometimes they would not show the last sec of some games even though they're just blabbin to ya or stayin with that 1-16 game with 6 minutes left and the 1 seed up 30

It used to be that the only way you could watch all the games was to be in Vegas, or have the old style satellites which could get almost all games. But even then, you had to have enough TV's to pick up all the games.
