We have finally arrived at the biggest stage in college basketball, the 2025 Final Four, and after an NCAA Tournament that started trending towards chalk from the earliest rounds, history has been made yet again with just the second-ever time with all four No.

Texas jumped out to a 12-4 start thanks to four different scorers, with Madison Booker leading the way. However, Booker picked up two fouls early and had to sit, coinciding with South Carolina's push back. Texas led 19-18 after one, but it was South Carolina's bench (Joyce Edwards, MiLaysia Fulwiley) that made the early difference.

While the men’s team in Hollywood has a long and storied history, this is actually the first time the women’s team at UCLA has made it to the Final Four. After a dominant regular season that saw the team win the Big Ten title, the Bruins have shown they have what it takes to be title contenders in wins over Ole Miss and LSU.

Auburn and Florida are the last two standing of a record 14 Southeastern Conference teams that made the NCAA Tournament.

South Carolina looked like a team vying for its third national championship in four years Friday night, overcoming a sloppy start to pull away from Texas for a 74-57 win in the women’s Final Four. Dawn Staley’s Gamecocks will face the winner of the second game between UConn and UCLA in Sunday’s title game.

Florida coach Todd Golden had just been hired and was armed with a vision to sell. Bruce Pearl had an established program at Auburn and could offer transfers a chance to play with future draft picks Jabari Smith and Walker Kessler.

Betts, who was named the Naismith Women's Defensive Player of the Year on Wednesday, is coming off a strong defensive performance inside the paint in the Elite Eight against LSU, when she finished with seven rebounds and a career-high six blocks.

Auburn coach Bruce Pearl, Florida's Todd Golden and Duke's Jon Scheyer are basketball rivals at the Final Four.
