Has CBS Ever Covered the NCAA Tournament Before?

CBS has been getting pretty roundly criticized for their coverage of the NCAA Tournament over the past 48 hours. It’s really not that difficult to switch between two close games in the last two minutes, but CBS has butchered that pretty badly. It’s also not that hard to send the appropriate feed to your Louisville, KENTUCKY affiliate for the KENTUCKY-East Tennessee State game, but CBS decided showing the first five minutes of the UK was not a priority.
Now it appears CBS has forgotten that the two seed plays the 15 seed in the first round.
Yeah, I know this is a mistake that can be pretty easily made by a slip on the keyboard, but let me have a little bit of joy in criticizing CBS for being really stupid.

NCAA needs to take this away from CBS. The coverage sucks a big one. It’s deplorable! They think everyone wants to see a stinking game in a certain state like Duke with a 20 point advantage in final 2 minutes yet wont show the end of Xavier game with 3 point difference. Every heard of a split screen CBS? Someone please save us!!!!!
I couldn’t agree more. I understand that it’s tricky to do the right thing every time when you are having to make split second calls about which games to show, but it’s not THAT hard.
