DENVER – BYU basketball will face the No. 3 seed Wisconsin Badgers in the second round of the 2025 NCAA Tournament.

The second-round clash will tip off at 5:45 p.m. (MDT) and be televised on CBS. Check your local affiliates for channel information.

It’s the first time since 2021 that BYU is playing on CBS during the NCAA Tournament. BYU lost to UCLA four years ago in Indianapolis.

The Cougars are gearing up for their first appearance in the Second Round of the NCAA Tournament since 2011.

BYU basketball knocked off No. 11 seed VCU on Thursday, 80-71, to advance to Saturday to face Wisconsin.

Wisconsin took down No. 14 seed Montana, 85-66, to advance to the second round of the “Big Dance.”

BYU and Wisconsin haven’t faced off in men’s basketball since a nonconference game in Illinois in the 2011-12 season.

Announcers for the game will include Brad Nessler as the play-by-play voice, with former North Carolina Tar Heel and 14-year NBA veteran Brendan Haywood as analyst. Dana Jacobson will handle the sidelines. The same announcers were on the call on Thursday during BYU’s win over VCy.
