今晚，一切都将见分晓，看佛罗里达短吻鳄队和休斯顿美洲狮队一决雌雄
如果您还不知道，今年的NCAA男子篮球最终四强赛又回到了圣安东尼奥。如果您这个周末试图靠近市中心，那么您一定深有体会。
这是阿拉莫城第五次加冕NCAA男子篮球冠军，也是自2018年以来的第一次。
周六晚上的两场比赛都异常精彩，配得上“疯狂三月”所受到的追捧。
第一场比赛中，佛罗里达大学主教练托德·戈尔登(Todd Golden)与他的前导师，奥本大学教练布鲁斯·珀尔(Bruce Pearl) 正面对决。在一场激烈的对攻战中，短吻鳄队笑到了最后。这是他们第四次进入决赛，之前的战绩为2胜1负。他们在2006年和2007年在教练比利·多诺万(Billy Donovan)的带领下连续两年夺得冠军，多诺万最近被宣布入选2025年奈史密斯篮球名人堂。
在第二场比赛中，杜克蓝魔队在下半场确立了14分的领先优势，让休斯顿美洲狮队难以接近。尽管美洲狮队奋力追赶，但当库珀·弗拉格(Cooper Flagg)完成一个精彩盖帽，也是他本场比赛的第三次盖帽时，杜克队仍然保持着9分的领先优势，当时比赛时间还剩2分17秒。
休斯顿队毫不气馁，在比赛的剩余时间里打出一波15-3的攻势，终结了蓝魔队晋级今晚冠军赛的任何希望。

It all comes down to the Gators and Cougars tonight
If you are unaware, this year’s NCAA Men’s Final Four returned to San Antonio. If you tried to go anywhere near downtown this weekend, then you are acutely aware.
This is the fifth time the NCAA men’s champions are crowned in The Alamo City, and the first time since 2018.
Saturday night’s back-to-back games were both barn burners, worthy of the hype surrounding March Madness.
The first matchup saw Florida’s head coach, Todd Golden, face off against his former mentor, Auburn coach, Bruce Pearl. In a slugfest, the Gators came out on top. This is their fourth trip to the Finals, going 2-1 in their previous attempts. They won back-to-back titles in 2006 and 2007 under coach Billy Donovan, who was recently announced as an inductee in the 2025 Naismith Hall of Fame enshrinement.
In the second game, the Duke Blue Devils established themselves a fourteen-point second half lead keeping the Houston Cougars at arms length. Although the Cougars chipped away, Duke still had a nine-point lead at the 2:17 mark when Cooper Flagg made a highlight block, his third of the night.
Houston undeterred, spent the remainder of the game going on a 15-3 run ending any hope the Blue Devils had for a trip to tonight’s Championship game.
Check out this winning percentage done in the timing of the shots falling.
Who are you rooting for tonight?
