2025 NCAA Tournament: Tip-off times, TV channel announced for Final Four

The 2025 Final Four is almost here and CBS has announced the tip times for the festivities in San Antonio. Auburn defeated Michigan State by a score of 70-64 to claim the final spot Sunday afternoon, meaning that all No. 1 seeds have advanced to the Final Four for the first time since 2008.

Auburn used 25 points and 14 rebounds from Johni Broome to advance to its second Final Four in the past six years. The Tigers most recently made it in 2019 for the first time in program history, but lost against eventual national champion Virginia.

They’ll have a familiar opponent in Florida, which got the better of it in the lone matchup this regular season. Revenge will surely be on his mind as Bruce Pearl looks to deliver the first national championship in program history.

They’ll be up in the first game on Saturday in San Antonio, followed by Houston and Duke. You can view the time and where to watch for both contests below.

The Gators were the first school to punch their ticket to the Final Four with an exciting finish against Texas Tech on Saturday. Despite trailing by nine with three minutes left in the game, they rallied back to tie things up thanks to three straight 3-pointers, including one from Walter Clayton with 1:45 remaining.

The next possession down the court, Clayton hit the go-ahead triple to put Florida up for good in the eventual 84-79 victory. He finished with a game-high 30 points to propel the Gators to their first Final Four since 2014.

Duke followed Florida to deliver an 85-65 beatdown of Alabama in the second Elite Eight game on Saturday. Kon Knueppel finished with a team-high 21 points while Flagg chipped in 16 points, nine rebounds and three assists.

Duke also managed to lock up Alabama star Mark Sears, who finished with six points on 2-of-11 shooting and committed five turnovers. The Final Four appearance is the first for Jon Scheyer as a head coach after he took over three years ago. It is also the 18th in program history with Duke going on to win on five of those previous trips.

The Blue Devils will draw Houston, which had an equally dominant performance Sunday in a 69-50 win against Tennessee. The Cougars are making their first Final Four appearance in the past five seasons as they look to get coach Kelvin Sampson his first national championship.
