The road to the Final Four is already underway with the First Round action in the 2025 NCAA Tournament set to get underway this week. March Madness will get started in earnest on Thursday when the first round tips off across the country.

Each one of the 64 remaining teams will be thinking about a trip to San Antonio, Texas, which is where this year's Final Four will be held. The last four teams standing will battle it out at the Alamodome as the NCAA Tournament crowns a national champion for the 2024-25 season. 

This will be the fifth time San Antonio has hosted the Final Four with the other years being 1998, 2004, 2008 and 2018. Three blue bloods in this year's field -- Kentucky, Kansas and UConn -- have all tasted victory in San Antonio before. The fourth team to win it all in "Mission City" was Villanova in 2018.

The Final Four will begin with the national semifinals on Saturday, April 5, and the national championship game will be two days later on Monday, April 7. All three games will air live on CBS.
