| I know a lot, if not all, of the games are on ESPN 360, which you can get online. But I think you have to pay.

Whoa--thanks!! I had no idea ESPN 360 existed. Apparently if you have high speed internet from AT&T, which, incidentally, I happen to have, you get it for free!
The quality is pretty impressive, and they have some games archived too (I'm scoping out the TN-LSU SEC title game right now). It does seem to slow down my MacBook Pro slightly though.
As for the tournament, they appear to carry every game in the first and second rounds. You have the option to watch in 4:3 and 16:9 ratios, and you can pick 4 different formats for the viewer:
- compact (small video with tool bar below, optional program guide sidebar)
- large (large video with tool bar below, optional program guide sidebar)
- full screen (very large video with tool bar below, optional program guide sidebar)
- mosaic. this option is awesome. you get a main video and a shelf below with 5 secondary, smaller videos. If you have the bandwidth you can watch 6 games at once, including replays, and switch between them whenever you want. it tends to lag a little more than the other options, though.
Oddly, they don't seem to carry as many men's games.
If you have the means to get 360, it looks like a good option for online viewing.

| I knew I had espn360, but this is the first time I'm really glad I have it. The only other time I tried it was for the Australian Open.

From the ESPN scoreboard there's a link to watch on ESPN360, but I cant find the game there.
Is it working for anyone?

| "NCAA Basketball" is men's. You need NCAAW.

| The tournament's finally reached a stage where I'm interested in watching the games, so if anyone's discovered a way to watch the games online outside the US (without installing Sopcast), I'd appreciate it if you'd share. Thanks.

| Fuck ESPN and their foreigner unfriendly policies. Apparently, they're only showing the championship game on ESPN Pacific Rim. Come on Card, you have to at least make the final just so I can see you play in the tourney. |

Bump.
Just on the off-chance that someone's found a stream somewhere for those of us blocked from ESPN360, I'm still looking for a way to watch the games tonight. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
