After two exciting weekends of NCAA Tournament action, the 2025 Final Four field is set. The bracket started with 68 teams earlier this month, and the field has since shrunk to a mere quartet ahead of what should be a historic Final Four next weekend.
Oddly enough, the Alamodome was also the venue the only other time all four No. 1 seeds made the Final Four. In 2008, Kansas toppled Memphis in overtime to win Bill Self’s first national title, tying the game in the final seconds of regulation with a Mario Chalmers 3-pointer after Derrick Rose missed a potential clinching free throw.
The NCAA men's tournament is down to four and that quartet will play in the Final Four. A look at the winners and losers of the regional round.
The Final Four is nearly here. Here are the schedule, times, dates, matchups and more for the 2025 men's NCAA Tournament:

Houston’s relentless defense confused and harassed Tennessee and carried the Cougars into their seventh Final Four and first since 2021.
Top seeds Duke, Florida, Houston and Auburn saw minimal movement atop the title odds during dominant postseason runs. Despite this year’s Elite Eight teams tying with the 2007 tourney for the lowest combined seed total (13) in tournament history, the four No. 1 seeds demolished four quality opponents by an average of 12.5 points.
