Paramount+ Feb. 12 announced a new four-part docuseries, “Made For March,” chronicling two of college basketball’s biggest programs — Kansas Jayhawks and Michigan Wolverines — in their bid for a national championship, streaming April 4.
The streamer is betting the two schools are among the NCAA’s Final Four match-ups on April 4, vying for the national championship game on April 6.
The series will feature off-court access, exclusive game footage and interviews, and coverage of key regular‑season, conference and postseason matchups in the Big 12 and Big 10. For the first time, cameras follow both teams across an entire season, capturing the intensity, pressure and passion on the road to and through the post-season.
The show will stream over four weeks first on Paramount+ and then air on CBS below:
Episode 101: Saturday, April 4 | 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. EST
Episode 102: Sunday, April 5 | 4:30 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. EST
Episode 103: Sunday, April 5 | 5:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. EST
Episode 104: Saturday, April 18 | 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. EST
“In today’s college basketball environment, it’s not easy to build real connection,” Dusty May, head basketball coach at Michigan, said in a statement. “This group has done that, and there’s something special about who they are and where they’re headed.”
“For over two decades, the Kansas men’s basketball program has been approached for a variety of all-access documentaries, and I have always turned them down,” added head basketball coach, Bill Self. “However, this is the one moment, with an incredibly special team, where I felt it was finally the right time to let viewers behind the curtain to get an unfettered look at what goes on with Kansas basketball.”
Michigan is currently ranked No. 2 in the nation, guided by senior forward Yaxel Lendeborg. The Wolverines entered the season with one of the most touted transfer classes in the country and have been one of the strongest teams in the sport to date.
The Jayhawks are currently ranked No. 9 in the nation, led by widely projected No. 1 NBA draft pick, Darryn Peterson. Coach Self has steered the school to two national championships, making Kansas one of the most consistently successful programs in the sport.
The series is produced by Paramount Sports Entertainment and Religion of Sports, a media company founded by Tom Brady, Michael Strahan and Gotham Chopra.
Producers include: Executive produced by Jesse Sisgold & Jon Weinbach for Paramount Sports Entertainment; Executive produced by Gotham Chopra, Ameeth Sankaran and Jonathan Schaerf for Religion of Sports; Executive produced by Collin Orcutt. Co-Executive produced by Sami Khan. CBS Sports and Big Ten Network also collaborated on the project.
