Notes

[edit]

^The game against Texas, which was originally scheduled to air exclusively on truTV, was simulcasted on TNT after the Oregon–VCU game, which was scheduled to air on the latter network around the same time, was cancelled due to VCU having to withdraw from the tournament due to COVID-19 protocols.
