Sirius Satellite Radio will be the exclusive satellite radio provider of every game of the 2007 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship.
This year’s tournament begins with the Opening Round game on March 13 from Dayton, Ohio and concludes with the national championship game on April 2 at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, the site of the 2007 Men’s Final Four.

Games will air on Sirius channels 119, 122, 125 and 126. Host Steve Torre will anchor the coverage on these channels, providing up-to- the-minute scores and highlights during game breaks and directing listeners to other games around the dial.
