After weeks of bracket predictions and fan excitement, March Madness comes to a close on April 7 with the highly anticipated men's NCAA championship game. The college basketball tournament — which officially kicked off on March 20 — will see the final two teams, the University of Houston Cougars and the University of Florida Gators, go head-to-head in San Antonio, Texas, for a chance at the title.
For both teams, the championship game marks the first time many of the athletes have made it this far into the tournament, including star players J'wan Roberts (Houston) and Walter Clayton Jr. (Florida).
Ahead of the game, Roberts told CBS Sports his message to his teammates as they head into the final round of the tournament: "We made it far, we made it to April. One last game, why not win it?"
Meanwhile, when Clayton Jr. was asked during a post-Final Four interview how he felt heading into the championship, he replied, "Ready."
From when it begins to how to stream the big game, here's everything to know about tuning into the men's NCAA championship.
