What's on ESPN Plus this week

There's no escaping it, folks. March Madness is here. (What, you thought this was going to be a bad Coronavirus lede?)

We're in the throes of the conference tournaments, where teams vie to the be the best in their, well, conferences, before (hopefully) heading on to the Big Dance. And there are a smattering of games on ESPN+ this week — some 180 to be precise — from 15 conferences nationwide.

It's called Champ Week , and it's going to be good. Catch games from the America East conference, the Atlantic 10, the Big South, Conference USA, Horizon League, the MAC, the Missouri Valley Conference, the Southland Conference, the Sun Belt conference and my personal favorite, the WAC.

College basketball isn't the only game in town, though. Major League Soccer will be doing its thing again on the weekend, including New York City FC vs. FC Dallas, Toronto FC vs. Nashville SD, and Houston Dynamo vs. Seattle Sounders. You can snag the entire ESPN+ MLS schedule here .

We're also fresh off UFC 248 and have turned our attention to UFC Fight Night Brasilia , with Kevin Lee — the No. 8 lightweight, former title challenger and collegiate wrestler — taking on Charles Oliveria, who made his UFC debut a decade ago, has the most submissions (18) in UFC history, and the second most total wins in the UFC.

Elsewhere:

• College baseball also has gotten underway, with a number of Top 25 games on the schedule.
• The NHL is still doing its thing, including the Philadelphia Flyers vs. Tampa Bay Lightning on March 13, the Chicago Blackhawks vs. Washington Capitals on March 14, and Vegas Golden Knights vs. Colorado Avalanche on March 15.
• Check out Stevenson vs. Marriaga undercards as part of Top Rank Boxing on March 14.
• While we await word of what Tom Brady is going to do for the 2020 season, there's The Brady 6 — about the half-dozen quarterbacks chosen before Brady in the 2000 NFL Draft. There's also the Tom Brady episode of Peyton's Places , Tom Brady Games , and highlights from three of his Super Bowl wins.
