Creighton-San Diego State live stream (3/26): How to watch March Madness’ Elite 8 online, TV, time
Creighton and San Diego State meet Sunday, March 26 with a chance to advance to the NCAA tournament’s Final Four. The game will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial) and Paramount+ (free trial). And it’s not the first time each team has stood in the other’s way.
The sixth-seeded Bluejays and the fifth-seeded Aztecs are each seeking their first Final Four when they meet in Sunday’s South Region final. Last year, they met much earlier in the NCAA Tournament — Creighton won 72-69 in overtime in the first round.
The Bluejays were one of the final eight teams in the tournament once before, in 1941, but it wasn’t called the Elite Eight at the time because, well, there were only eight teams in the entire event.
After Friday’s 86-75 win over No. 15 Princeton, the Bluejays (24-12) can truly be called Elite.
All San Diego State (31-6) had to do to advance was beat No. 1 overall seed Alabama.
The veteran-laden Aztecs are the first Mountain West Conference team to reach a regional final and believe they have more to prove after ousting the Crimson Tide.
The teams have been together once since last year’s first-round thriller. They shared a round-trip flight to Hawaii for the Maui Invitational last fall. But only one of them will be flying to Houston for the Final Four.
When is San Diego State-Creighton?
Creighton and San Diego State play in the Eight Eight of the NCAA tournament at 1:20 p.m. (2:20 p.m. ET) on Sunday, March 26.
