Note: From 1969 to 1972, both the consolation (3rd place) game and the Championship game were televised on Saturday afternoon as a doubleheader. In 1969 and 1970, Gowdy and Simpson reversed roles for the telecast; Gowdy called the title game and Simpson earlier called the “consy.” In 1973, the final was moved to Monday night, and the consy was no longer televised. In 1982, the consy game was dropped altogether.

Prior to 1969, the NCAA Championship was never on live network TV. However the one-time rival NIT tourney had been on CBS for many years in the 1960’s and well into the 1970’s. Before the NCAA allowed at-large berths in 1975, the NIT fielded some high quality tournaments.

Information beyond 1963 not yet researched.

Why is there a column for trophy presentation? That doesn't have anything to do with the broadcast.
