Speaking of David and Goliath matchups, UConn vs. Stetson will be the biggest draw throughout March Madness 2024. It's UConn, the champion and top seed, and Stetson, the 64th seed in his tournament debut. Of course shocks happen, but rarely with underdogs as vulnerable on defense as the Hatters. Still, they love the 3-pointer, and things could get tasty if they find that range at Barclays Center today.

You can watch UConn vs. Stetson from anywhere with a VPN and for free.

According to DraftKings, UConn is favored by a significant -27.5 points at the time of publication of this article, but as the old saying goes, the bigger you are, the harder you fall.

Led by guard Tristen Newton, who leads the team in both scoring and assists, the Huskies are fully intent on retaining their national title. Winning the Big East Regular Season Championship and the Big East Tournament shows that they are a force to be reckoned with.

Dan Harley will be acutely aware that only once in the last 21 years has a No. 1 seed won the tournament, and it has been 17 years since they have won back-to-back titles.

And Jalen Blackmon could be a problem for UConn. The guard ranks in the top 10 in the nation with a 21.5 PG average and had an astounding 43 PG in the ASUN Championship Final. Unfortunately, the Hatters' defense ranked 342nd out of 351, making it a long afternoon for center Auburn Gatelet.

The UConn-Stetson game will be broadcast on CBS in the US, with tipoff today at 2:45 p.m. ET.

If you haven't already cut the cord and have a cable package, you can get all the channels you need for March Madness via the OTT cable TV alternative. March Madness is split between TBS, TNT, TruTV, and CBS.

Sling TV is one of the most affordable options; TBS, TNT, and TruTV are included in the Blue plan, which starts at $45 per month, with the first month half off.

CBS can be added by subscribing to Paramount Plus Premium ($11.99/month).

Together, these cost $56.99/month, but the first month is $34.49, cheaper than Fubo, YouTube TV, and Hulu Live TV. For more information on how to watch March Madness 2024 without cable at the lowest price, see the event's main page.

An even cheaper alternative this year is HBO's streaming service Max and its B/R Sports Add-On.

B/R Sports Add-On brings access to games on TBS, TNT, and TruTV. Maximum pricing starts at $9.99 per month with ads and goes up to $15.99 per month without ads. The company is also offering a special offer of 40% off if you pay for a year in advance, effectively 12 months for $5.83 per month.

The CBS game still requires Paramount Plus Premium, but it means you can watch all of March Madness 2024 for the bargain price of $21.98. Not bad.

Finally, YouTubeTV is offering a free trial period for select customers. You can read more about March Madness for cord cutters here.
