If you're in need of some college basketball during this global pandemic, you're in luck. Westwood One has announced they'll be airing a selection of games they classify as Great Games in NCAA Tournament History during the days that they'd have been airing the NCAA Tournament.
The set of games will be hosted by Kevin Kugler, Jason Horowitz, and Ryan Radtke (on a rotating basis). They'll also feature exclusive new interviews at Halftime of each match, beginning with Magic Johnson and Larry Bird as they discuss their longtime rivalry during Halftime of the first game- the 1979 National Championship between Michigan State and Indiana State.
Westwood One has assured everyone that these games will air as they were originally broadcast outside of some time edits.
You'll be able to listen to the games on many Westwood One affiliates as well as westwoodonesports.com, SiriusXM, and TuneIn.
The broadcasts are also being archived on westwoodonesports.com for anytime listening, and you can check back here if you wish to listen to one you've missed as I'm hyperlinking the game archive from westwoodonesports.com once they make the archive available. Just click the highlighted ARCHIVE under each game.
So that I have the ability to list more content, I'll do a weekly post with the information rather than listing them all at once.
Here's this weeks slate of games and the times they'll air. As always commentary information will be filled in as soon as I can verify it.
