The big day has finally arrived for college basketball fans across the globe. That's right, Selection Sunday is here and we're about to find out when and where the best teams in the game will be playing next week when the 2025 NCAA Tournament gets started.

For Tennessee basketball fans, they're obviously hopeful that the Vols can take down Florida in the SEC Championship Game to grab a No. 1 seed. If things don't go to plan, though, the Vols surely have a No. 2 seed locked up at minimum.

After that SEC title game, people won't have to wait long for the Selection Sunday show to get underway. We've got all the info you need to watch each announcement in this piece:

What time is Selection Sunday for the 2025 NCAA Tournament?

Don't make plans for this evening, as the Selection Sunday show is all set to get started at 6 p.m. ET. Duke, Auburn and Houston are presumed locks to take home a No. 1 seed.

What channel is the Selection Sunday show on?

If you're looking to watch everything live, Selection Sunday will be showcased on CBS and Paramount+. You'll also be able to catch a stream of things via fubo.TV.

Will the Tennessee Vols take home a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament?

As things stand, the big question on a lot of people's minds all over Tennessee is will the Vols bring home a No. 1 seed in the tourney or not? There's been speculation even if UT wins the SEC Tournament title game, Florida will grab the final No. 1 spot over them.

Should that be the case, people are going to be furious and rightfully so. Soon enough, we'll find out if that will be the case or not, but Tennessee will be entering the NCAA Tournament with loads of confidence regardless of what the committee decides.
