The final day of men's college basketball is finally upon us as the Florida Gators prepare to face the Houston Cougars in the 2025 NCAA Tournament Finals for all the marbles. If you are looking to catch the apex of March Madness inside the Alamodome on TV or live stream, everything you need to know is just below.
The Gators are riding an 11-game winning streak that includes an SEC Championship crown while winning all five of their Big Dance matchups so far. The Cougars have an even longer stretch of success, bringing in an 18-game winning streak into the finals and a Big 12 title as well.
Both teams are at the peak of their games, but it was not easy getting here. The two programs came close to missing out on the prestige of reaching the finals but used second-half rallies to prevail. Who will take home the crown this year?

The Gators continue to look like a team of destiny, but make no mistake, the Cougars have some serious mojo going on as well. Both teams have to claw back from deficits in the Final Four against the Auburn Tigers and Duke Blue Devils — either of which could have easily been slated for Monday night's battle. Suffice it to say, the Florida-Houston ticket is about as evenly matched as it gets.
However, the two schools operate very differently as Houston prefers to play a slow, methodical game relying on the nation's strongest defense, while Florida prefers a fast pace, breaking out in transition after their frontcourt wrecking crew grabs the rebound — something the Gators are among the best in the country at doing.
So, who will win? The Orange and Blue. But it will be a bruiser of a game that has us on the edge of our seats the entire way.
Prediction: Florida ...
