Every UCLA potential March Madness venue in 2023 NCAA Tournament
By Adam Weinrib
Your UCLA Bruins have made March Madness 2023 — but they’ve got a tough draw to go along with the initial boisterousness.
Despite ranking among the top four teams in the nation for most of the season, the committee’s obvious shot at the Bruins that got Mick Cronin heated ended up being prescient.
The Bruins will be a No. 2 seed in the West Region in the 2023 tournament, which means that they’ll be starting in friendly territory. Sadly, it also means that they might have to tussle with the Kansas Jayhawks before returning to the Final Four.
UCLA Bruins March Madness 2023: Every Potential Venue
UCLA will begin their ascent in Sacramento, CA at the Golden 1 Center, and will need to take down UNC-Asheville as a No. 15 seed in order to light the beam. If they make it to the Sweet 16 and/or Elite 8, they’ll be playing at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The Final Four? This year, it’ll be held in Houston once again, famous for being borderline unplayable in 2011 due to invisible rims in the Butler-UCONN Final. NRG Stadium, we hope you’re ready for Tyger Campbell.
Bruins fans can watch (and stress over) their team on the CBS family of networks once again this year (cue your annual Googling of what channel TruTV is, exactly — it’s 246 on DirecTV).
CBS, TBS, TNT and, yes, TruTV will be your television homes for 2023’s tournament, and CBS has also released expanded streaming coverage on March Madness Live.
