The final showdown of the men’s college basketball season will be deep in the heart of Texas, as the Final Four is at San Antonio’s Alamodome April 5 and 7 for the crowning of the 2025 national champions.
No. 1 seeds are Auburn (South), Duke (East), Houston (Midwest) and Florida (West). Auburn was stunned by No. 13 seed Yale in the first round last year, but don’t expect an early exit for star Johni Broome and the Tigers this time around. In December, freshman Cooper Flagg and the Duke Blue Devils handed Auburn its first loss of the season with an 84-78 win in the SEC/ACC Challenge, and a rematch in San Antone could be in the cards.
Action tips off in Dayton, Ohio, with the First Four March 18-19 on truTV. The Sweet 16 and Elite 8 regionals take place in San Francisco, Atlanta, Indianapolis and Newark, New Jersey.
