How to watch the NCAA tournament of women and what to look out for

Women's basketball did not slow down this season when March Madness arrives.

A year ago, the NCAA championship game of women pulled a larger television audience for the first time than the men's title, with an average of 18.9 million viewers of undefeated South Carolina defeated Iowa and superstar Caitlin Clark.

The question was whether some fans would take the WNBA as Clark, Angel Reese, Kamilla Cardoso and other outstanding outstanding achievements. Instead, the women's play has once again introduced a convincing bunch of stars, from Paige Bueckers from Uconn to Juju Watkins at USC, Hannah Hidalgo by Notre Dame and Madison Booker from Texas.

The season was also seen for another reason: Parity. So far, four teams have kept the number 1 in the AP Top 25 and at most have been linked the brand. That makes the tournament winner for everyone's assumption.

How can I see the tournament?

Every game of the women's tournament is broadcast – here is a schedule that is updated with matchups – in ESPN networks and streaming services with selected games on ABC.

Who are the favorites?
