Auburn, Duke, Florida and Houston are here along the River Walk for college basketball’s 2025 Final Four, which begins Saturday and finishes Monday. Kentucky is not here, of course. New coach Mark Pope engineered an impressive first season from scratch to reach the NCAA Tournament’s Sweet 16, but landed two wins short of its San Antonio goal.
And while that 2019 team crashed the Final Four with relentless turnover-forcing defense and ceaseless three-point shooting, this year's team is just super efficient on both ends of the floor, a seven man-rotation consisting of six grown men and one free-wheeling freshman whose permanent green light could be what wins (or loses) them a title.

Texas, making its first Final Four appearance since 2003, will face South Carolina for the fourth time this season with a championship berth on the line.
