Will bringing these four superpowers together actually lead to great games on the final weekend of the college basketball season?
For the first time since 2008, the NCAA Men’s March Madness Final Four features the four no. 1 seeds: Florida, Houston, Auburn, and Duke. The teams will face off (Auburn Tigers vs. Florida Gators and Houston Cougars vs. Duke Blue Devils) this upcoming Saturday, April 5 for a chance to play in the national championship on Monday, April 7.
Philadelphia 76ers rookie and Duke alum Jared McCain has a bold prediction for how far the Blue Devils can go in the 2025 NCAA tournament. "2025 national champs is how far we'll go," McCain told B/R in an interview before attending No. 1 Duke's Sweet 16 matchup against No. 4 Arizona on Thursday.
Fournier is listed on the Duke roster at 6-foot-2. She is tied for the third tallest on the roster. Fournier first gained attention for dunking at age 14. Fournier dunks in pregame warmups, including a backboard pass from teammate Vanessa de Jesus.
With the opening line of Duke’s Sweet 16 hovering near double digits, the Blue Devils are heavily favored in their matchup against No. 4 Arizona. Displaying dominant two-way play through two games, it’s easy to see why Duke currently sits at No. 1 entering the second weekend.
