CBS/Turner Announce Tip Times for 2014 NCAA Final Four Games

Announced earlier tonight, TBS will air the 2014 NCAA Men’s Final Four live from Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, TX. So weird to hear “North Texas” over the last two weeks. Do the residents of Arlington, TX like hearing their city referred to as the generic North Texas? Just a thought.

Anyway, TBS will air UConn-Florida in the early slot at 6:09 p.m. with Kentucky-Wisconsin in the nightcap at approximately 8:49 p.m.

Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, Clark Kellogg and Kenny Smith will be the main hosts and helm The Final Four Show at 3 p.m. ET on TBS. They’ll be joined by Greg Gumbel, Seth Davis, Doug Gottlieb, Grant Hill and Reggie Miller.

Here’s the schedule from CBS/Turner Sports.
