Start time, TV channel announced for Alabama vs. Robert Morris NCAA Tournament game
The NCAA has announced start times and TV information for the opening round of the 2025 NCAA Tournament, including the first-round East Region matchup between the No. 2 seed Alabama Crimson Tide and No. 15 seed Robert Morris.
The Crimson Tide and Colonials are scheduled to tip at 11:40 a.m. CT Friday from Rocket Arena in Cleveland. The game will be televised on TruTV, part of the Warner Bros. Discovery-owned TNT Sports family of channels broadcasting the tournament.
Alabama (25-8 overall) was expected to draw a No. 2 seed in Sunday's 68-team bracket reveal. The Duke Blue Devils are the No. 1 seed in the East Region. For the Crimson Tide, it's their 25th NCAA Tournament appearance all-time and the fifth in a row under coach Nate Oats. Last year, Alabama made the tournament as a No. 4 seed and defeated Charleston, Grand Canyon, No. 1 seed North Carolina and Clemson to advance to the school's first Final Four appearance.
The Crimson Tide fell 104-82 to the Florida Gators in the semifinal round of the SEC Tournament on Saturday, marking Alabama's fifth loss in nine games. Florida defeated Tennessee 86-77 on Sunday to win the conference tournament. The Gators are the No. 1 seed in the West Region of the NCAA Tournament.
