March Madness 2024 live stream: Where to watch the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament

Add as a preferred source on Google

After a riveting Sweet 16, only eight teams remain in the 2024 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship. The Elite Eight determines the winner of each region and, more importantly, punches a ticket to the Final Four next weekend in Phoenix. For some of these teams, making the Final Four would represent a landmark moment for their universities. 

Can anyone stop No. 1 UConn? The defending national champions looked unstoppable in their 82-52 Sweet 16 victory over No. 4 San Diego State. The Huskies have now won their last nine NCAA Tournament games by an average of 22.9 points per game. Another intriguing matchup pits No. 4 Alabama against No. 6 Clemson. These football schools are trying to prove that their basketball teams belong among the elite. The winner of the game will reach the Final Four for the first time in their program’s history.

Disney is about to give fan edits something rare: official permission. A new agreement with TikTok will let creators use characters, scenes, and other assets from hundreds of Disney movies and television series in their own short-form videos. The available catalog will span Disney’s enormous collection of brands, including Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and FX.

The partnership will begin as a US pilot in the coming months, with plans to expand into additional markets. Disney and TikTok have yet to reveal which creators will receive access first or exactly which films, shows, and characters will be available.

Your next boat could finally feel like your car, thanks to this major navigation upgrade
Boat

If you've ever relied on a dedicated marine GPS, you'll know it often feels like stepping back in time. Clunky menus, confusing charts, and awkward route planning have long been part of the boating experience. That's finally starting to change.

As per a report by BusinessWire, Crest and Balise, the two pontoon brands under MasterCraft Boat Holdings, have announced a partnership with marine navigation app Savvy Navvy to bring a far more familiar experience to the helm. Beginning with select 2027 models, owners will be able to use Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to access Savvy Navvy directly from their boat's display. Instead of juggling separate navigation hardware or switching back and forth between your phone and dashboard, boaters will be able to access maps, routes, and trip information from the same infotainment screen they already use.

Netflix has updated its system requirements to list Google Chrome 117 or later as supporting playback at up to Ultra HD 2160p on compatible Windows computers.

Google has yet to make a major Chrome announcement about it.
