The 2013 NCAA Tournament officially got underway on Tuesday with the first two first-round games of March Madness. Two more games will follow on Wednesday, and the field of 64 will begin on Thursday.

The first few days of the NCAA Tournament are some of the best in sports. Cinderellas are born, as several top seeds are bound to slip up and lose their first game.

Eight different cities will host 36 contests in the first two rounds of the tourney. On Thursday and Friday, games will be played over approximately a 12-hour span. The longest break between scheduled start times is a two hour and 10 minute window in the early evening.

All of the games can be seen online for free, provided that viewers give their cable subscription information. Four different television channels will broadcast the games.
