Who’s in men’s Final Four? Updated March Madness bracket, schedule

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

For the first time since 2008, the Final Four will consist entirely of No. 1 seeds, with No. 1 overall seed Auburn becoming the last to join Florida, Duke and Houston in San Antonio after a 70-64 win over Michigan State in Atlanta.

Every team’s path has been different. For Houston, it has been marked by stifling defense in the face of an exceptionally difficult region. For Florida, it has involved a pair of huge comebacks and some clutch shooting down the stretch. For Duke, it has been almost alarmingly easy, with the Blue Devils averaging a margin of victory of 23.5 points per game. And for Auburn, it has featured wins over a pair of Big Ten schools to get to the final weekend.

One side of the bracket will feature Auburn vs. Florida in an SEC showdown between the conference’s regular season and tournament champions. The other side will see Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel and the vaunted Blue Devils taking on a Houston team led by coach Kelvin Sampson, who has carved out a bit of a legend in Space City ahead of his second Final Four appearance with the Cougars.

Here’s the full list of teams to make the Final Four in 2025:
