March Madness is quickly approaching, but before teams can put on their dancing shoes they must first find out if they've made into the NCAA Tournament.

The bracket will be revealed on Selection Sunday on March 17 in a one-hour broadcast on CBS with host Greg Gumbel.

CBS' Selection Show will go with its traditional format of revealing the bracket by region. It deviated from the tradition last year by sharing the automatic bids in alphabetical order and then the 36 at-large teams in alphabetical order.
