Welcome back, March Madness. It's been far, far too long.

The NCAA Tournament finally returns Friday when the first round tips off across Indiana. One year after the COVID-19 pandemic canceled the entire 2020 tournament, they're doing some socially distanced dancing in the Hoosier State.

To say it's been a wild, unpredictable college basketball season would be an understatement. Between pandemic concerns and ensuing scheduling issues, it's been a wild run. While hopefully everyone stays healthy in the bubble, we'll be rooting for the pandemonium to come on the actual hardwood.

The action tips of Friday, and here's the full slate of Day 1 first-round games with TV information.
