Tulsa - The City of Tulsa is making a bid to bring "March Madness" to town. But, will it have a place for the NCAA to play?

There remain major questions about when the BoK Center will be finished. As we've told you, the arena is 32-million dollars over budget.

Still, the city is bidding to host the men's college basketball tournament in 2009 or 2010.

If chosen, the city would host the first round or regional games at the BoK Center. The NCAA is expected to make a decision in July.
