Jason Benetti Replaces Brian Anderson for Thursday's NCAA Games in Buffalo

CBS/TNT received cross-network clearance following Anderson's First Four illness.

Overview

  • Anderson sat out after a raspy First Four call and said his 'voice is wrecked,' adding he hopes to return for Saturday's Round of 32.
  • Benetti will work with analyst Jim Jackson and sideline reporter Allie LaForce at KeyBank Center.
  • Their slate covers South Florida–Louisville and North Dakota State–Michigan State on TNT, then Howard–Michigan and Saint Louis–Georgia on CBS.
  • NBC and Westwood One authorized the one-day loan, with Pat McCarthy taking Benetti's national radio assignment.
  • The fill-in comes as Benetti prepares to debut as NBC's Sunday Night Baseball voice next week.
