march madness

A city in Upstate New York has had a 'March Madness' Cinderella-style run of its own, as it was named the top 'bar city' in America in a 64-city bracket.

In one of the greatest college basketball games in Capital Region history, Siena upset Ohio State in the 2009 NCAA Hoops Tournament. Relive it through these photos.

Two years into his young broadcasting career, former college basketball player Billy Packer became the voice of the March Madness and the Final Four in 1974 for CBS. Packer's voice became synonymous with the NCAA's crown jewel for the next 35 years.

In the course of coaching a premier college basketball program for nearly five decades, it would be easy to assume that one would get pretty good at assessing their team's chances from one year to the next. On Wednesday at the ACC Men's Basketball Media Day, Boeheim told several reporters that this year's squad of Orange will go to the Big Dance in March. After suffering his first losing season since taking up the profession at Syracuse, the 77 year-old coach is ready to get his team back to playing tournament basketball.

I love the Saint Peter’s story, but it will end on Friday in the Sweet 16. I just don’t see how this Cinderella team gets past Purdue.

It was the University at Albany's first trip to the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament. Head coach Will Brown would take the Great Danes four more times. However, the game on March 17, 2006 was more than special, on and off the court. I was at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia with the team and will never forget the experience of that game. Albany alumni across the country were digging out their old 'Albany State' sweatshirts after that program changing performance.

New York state is shattering expectations for sports wagering since its legalization in January, and we likely haven't even seen the peak of the first wave yet.

Even though it's now April, you can blame March Madness for free pizza on Monday. A pizza chain made a deal during the NCAA tournament and now they are paying up.

Who doesn't love to witness greatness? It could be just about anything, if I'm watching the best in the world go at in basket weaving, I'm entertained! Since the start of the women's NCAA tournament back in 1982, the UConn women's basketball team has had 6 (SIX) undefeated seasons.  If they make it through the regional games in Albany this Saturday (and potentially Monday night) they'll be 2 wins

I'll be the first to tell you that I'm not incredibly knowledgeable about sports, let alone college basketball/March Madness but I do think this new trend is a little extreme just to watch a game or two! No one is really doing this, right?

The Times Union Center has announced the NCAA Mens Basketball Tournament is coming back to Albany.

James Kiki has the best NCAA Bracket in the nation, but he could miss out on $50,000 because of one mistake he made filling it out.
