An NCAA runover on Sunday, 3/20 could delay start times for 60 Minutes (7pm ET), Amazing Race (8pm ET), Undercover Boss (9pm ET) and CSI: Miami (10pm ET).

If so, you will receive a message on Sunday with exact details of revised start times.

I can confirm that 60 Minutes WILL (not could) be delayed for major parts of the East Coast. Here is the NCAA Basketball Tournament picture for CBS telecasts:

U North Carolina just beat Washington at 215pm. The game took 2 hours on the nose.
 
At 249pm, the first game of the West Region at Charlotte will tip Duke vs. Michigan. Let's assume that it finishes without overtime at 449pm (the probability of finishing much sooner is not high).

That makes the tip time for Ohio State vs. George Mason about 519pm. With a 2 hour game (this one will not be going to overtime), that finishes around 720pm, or 20 minutes late.

Actual completion time for Duke vs. Michigan was 501pm. Actual tip for Ohio State vs. George Mason was 516pm. My assessment above is still valid. This game is unlikely to finish much before 715pm and 60 Minutes to start before about 720pm.

Was there ever a consensus reached on when TAR 18's finale would be?

Does May 8th seem right?

Just realized that TAR is on at 7pm in Canada again this week - March 27th.
CTV is showing the 2011 Juno awards at 8pm. Will Bieber be there?

And we have this heads up from CBS:

An NCAA runover on Sunday, 3/27 could delay start times for 60 Minutes (7pm ET), Amazing Race (8pm ET), Undercover Boss (9pm ET) and CSI: Miami (10pm ET).

If so, you will receive a message on Sunday with exact details of revised start times.

Let's look at the specifics of tomorrow's CBS NCAA games. First tipping off at 220pm is VCU vs. Kansas, which should be a blowout and not likely to have multiple overtimes. At 505pm the tipoff of Kentucky vs. North Carolina is likely to be on-time. This game if there are no overtimes (a distinct possibility given the teams involved) should be over around 720pm and 60 Minutes should start about 725pm. More analysis is really not possible until halftime of that game.

VCU vs Kansas is now at halftime. The first half took a little over one hour. Probably won't be any overtime.

Kansas lost to VCU (the opposite of what I expected) with the game finishing about 440pm. North Carolina/Kentucky did tip at 505 pm, so as I said above we won't know much until halftime to better calibrate finishing time. I am sticking with 60 Minutes start at 725pm until I know something new.

Wow, this game is zooming! At 615pm the second half started. That means it will likely finish by 710pm and 60 Minutes start by 715pm.

Fortunately that first game would not have had an impact on the second game's start. Now if UNC/UK goes to OT, that's a problem.

Kentucky beat North Carolina, ending at 705pm (YAY). 60 Minutes should start around 710pm.

Since it's for the Final Four, expect a (brief) post-game show
