The Final Four has arrived. This year’s March Madness semifinalists are all No. 1 seeds, including the Florida Gators, the Auburn Tigers, the Duke Blue Devils, and the Houston Cougars. The Devils and the Cougars are up second in tonight’s doubleheader, happening at Alamodome in San Antonio.
At a Glance: How to Watch Duke vs. Houston

- TV Channel: CBS
- Date, Start Time: Saturday, April 5 at 8:49 p.m. ET
Duke brings the nation’s best offence and the projected No. 1 pick in this year’s NBA draft (Cooper Flagg). The Blue Devils have been on their A-game this postseason, winning three of four games by 20 points or more (Arizona by seven being the only exception). Houston has been successful with its nation-leading defense, although they barely squeezed by Purdue in the Sweet 16 with a 62-60 win.

How to Watch Duke vs. Houston March Madness Game Online
Both men’s Final Four matchups are airing live on CBS. If you don’t have cable, you’ll need Paramount+ with Showtime or a live TV streaming platform that carries CBS. Here are your best bets:
editor’s pick
Paramount+
Pros: Free trial, affordable, on-demand content
Cons: Limited live coverage
The easiest way to stream Duke vs. Houston is through Paramount+ — just make sure you’re signed up for the Paramount+ with Showtime tier. That plan gives you access to simulcasts of both men’s Final Four games. Paramount+ with Showtime costs $12.99/month after a seven-day free trial, and you also get their full on-demand catalog.
Editor’s pick
DirecTV Stream
Pros: Free trial, huge channel lineup, great for sports
Cons: Pricey
Our go-to pick for streaming every March Madness game (men’s and women’s) is DirecTV Stream. CBS is included with all Signature packages, which come with a five-day free trial and start at $86.99/month. The base Entertainment package includes 90+ channels, so it’s basically like having cable — minus the hardware and long-term commitment.
Fubo
Pros: Free trial, huge channel lineup
Cons: Pricey, missing Warner Bros. Discovery Networks
Fubo is another solid option to stream Duke vs. Houston, plus the men’s and women’s championship games. It has one of the largest channel lineups around, although it doesn’t carry TNT, which can be a drawback for basketball fans. Fubo packages start at $84.99/month after a seven-day free trial. Right now, you can also get $20 off your first month.
