Earlier this month, we broke down the history of Final Fours in Indianapolis. This year’s Final Four will be the 6th played in the amateur sports capital of the world.

And here is the TV schedule, as well as the announcer assignment, tip times, and spreads for the 2010 Final Four in Indianapolis. (Note: I’m posting this before the participants are known; I’ll update this table once we know who is in the Final Four.)

2010 Final Four TV Schedule, Tip Time, Dates, Announcers, Spread

* – These are the historical tip times for the Final Four, so I’m assuming these will be the times for this year. Whether the Midwest-West game is first or the South-East game is first will be determined by CBS after Sunday’s games. Something tells me that if Duke-Kentucky is one of the Final Four matchups, it will get the primetime slot as the second matchup.

Once the Elite 8 games have been decided, we’ll have in-depth previews and predictions of both Final Four games, as well as the National Championship game.
