March Madness has returned, and the brackets have been set. 

“Selection Sunday” has revealed the 2025 NCAA Tournament men’s basketball bracket, and the first round has been set for Thursday and Friday. 

Auburn, despite losing the SEC Tournament final to Tennessee, was named the No. 1 overall seed in this year’s tournament. They will head the South Region, while Duke (East Region), Houston (Midwest Region), and Florida (West Region) round out the No. 1 seeds.

Before we break out each side of the bracket, the “First Four” games have been set for Tuesday and Wednesday to determine who will be owning No. 11 and 16 seeds in this tournament. 

In the South Region, it’s San Diego State and UNC battling for the 11 seed, while the No. 16 seed will be the winner of Alabama State and Saint Francis (PA). 

Then, in the East Region, the winner of American and Mount Saint Mary’s will own the No. 16 seed, and the Midwest Region’s No. 11 seed will be determined between Texas and Xavier. 

Now, without further ado, let’s reveal every team and their first-round matchups in this year’s exciting tournament.
