No one expected the upset Houston pulled over Duke. Tonight, we'll see if L.J. Cryer (15.6 PPG) and the Houston Cougars can do it again against Florida, led by Walter Clayton Jr. (18.5 PPG). The two NCAA teams have fought through five rounds of bracket matchups, culminating in the end of the Madness tonight.
Only 10 unique teams have won the NCAA March Madness National Championship in the last 10 years — Florida is one of them. While Houston's defense has proved to be insurmountable, most sports analysts have Florida winning it all by an extremely narrow margin.
Coverage will air on CBS, and streaming options include Paramount+ (with the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME® plan), the NCAA March Madness Live app, and other live TV streaming services as shown below.
