The 2013 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament involves 68 teams playing in a single-elimination tournament to determine the national champion of men's NCAA Division I college basketball. It began on March 19, 2013 and concludes with the championship game on April 8, 2013 at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta. This is the 75th edition of the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship, dating back to 1939.

Selection Sunday, when the participants and tournament brackets were announced, was March 17, 2013.[1]

Defending national champion Kentucky was omitted from the field of 68, becoming the first reigning champion to be denied the opportunity to defend its championship in a season in which it was eligible for the tournament since Louisville in 1987 (1988 champion Kansas was placed on probation and declared ineligible for the 1989 tournament). The Wildcats were 17-6 when freshman All-America candidate Nerlens Noel was lost for the seaon with a severe knee injury during a loss at Florida, and Kentucky stumbled to a 4-4 record over their last eight games, including an embarrassing 18-point loss to a sub-.500 Vanderbilt outfit in the SEC tournament quarterfinals. The Wildcats were one-and-done in the NIT, losing 59-57 to Robert Morris.

Atlantic Sun Conference champion Florida Gulf Coast University made its first NCAA appearance, and Big South champion Liberty University became the first 20-loss team in five years to earn an NCAA bid. For the first time since 1977, no team from Texas was selected for the Tournament.

Tournament procedure

Further information: NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship § Current_tournament format

A total of 68 teams enter the 2013 tournament. Thirty of the 31 automatic bids teams are given to the program that wins their conference tournament. The remaining automatic bid goes to the Ivy League regular season champion since they do not hold a conference tournament. The remaining 37 teams are granted "at-large" bids, which are determined by the NCAA Selection Committee.

Eight teams—the four lowest-seeded automatic qualifiers and the four lowest-seeded at-large teams—play in the First Four (the successor to what had been popularly known as "play-in games" through the 2010 tournament). The winners of these games advance to the main draw of the tournament.

The Selection Committee seeds the entire field from 1 to 68.
