And just like that, the college basketball season is over.
On Monday night, Florida came back to beat Houston 65-63 and claim the program’s third all-time national championship. After Houston stunned Duke in the Final Four to reach the title fight, the Cougars played from the front for most of the evening against the Gators. And Florida did to Houston what Houston did to Duke.
Florida led for all of 64 seconds. It trailed by as many as 12 points in the second half.
As it looked all throughout the NCAA Tournament, Florida looked undeniable. The Gators’ 2025 national title capped an incredible run to close the season. Florida won 3 games against ranked opponents at the SEC Tournament to win the conference tournament title. The Gators beat the 2-time defending champion UConn Huskies in the second round of the NCAA tourney, beat Maryland by 16 in the Sweet 16, came back to beat Texas Tech in the Elite Eight, outlasted Auburn in the Final Four, and then found a way to take down Houston.
As one would expect, Florida featured heavily in this year’s “One Shining Moment” montage.
Florida wasn’t the only team from the SEC to show up in the beloved tourney recap, though.
John Calipari, Johni Broome, Sean Pedulla, Mark Sears, Tennessee, and Arkansas all featured throughout the video.
