2025 NCAA Tournament scores, schedule: March Madness bracket, Elite Eight dates, tip times, TV channels
Will Florida get to the Final Four for the first time since the 2014 NCAA Tournament? Or will it be Texas Tech in the national semifinals for the second time in school history? Will Duke get to the Final Four for the first time under Jon Scheyer? Or will it be Alabama for the second straight year?
The answers will be delivered Saturday.
Duke-Alabama is the main event.
That will be the final in the East Region in Newark. And, based on what we saw Thursday, it could be a classic given how both teams' stars — Duke's Cooper Flagg and Alabama's Mark Sears — are coming off of incredible performances.
Flagg got 30 points, seven assists, six rebounds, three blocks and a steal in Duke's 100-93 win over Arizona while Sears finished with 34 points, eight assists, three rebounds and three steals in Alabama's 113-88 win over BYU. On Saturday, they'll meet with the winner advancing to the 2025 FInal Four. Tip is scheduled for 8:49 pm ET on TBS.
The dates, sites and scores for every 2025 NCAA Tournament game are listed below culminating with the Final Four and NCAA championship game on April 5 and 7 at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.
