1. I was rooting for for anyone but the officiating in this Game was terrible I believe influenced the result too much

2. Florida this year is the definition of keep playing, no matter what. Multiple games they were trailing by double digits or near double digits, particularly towards the end of the game, but kept fighting and kept playing and when you scrap and fight, and play to win and not play to play it safe, then you can win.

3. Why is Clayton a senior? He was never good enough for the nba. Ncaa made it too obvious every game that this tournament was rigged. Congrats to the fake champ Florida

4. Whatever happened to tying the game to go to OT??

5. Well Done University of Florida & South Eastern Conference for bringing the championship back to the SEC 🏆

6. Losing the final gotta be worst then not making it to the finals😭

7. That’s was a good game but it really sucks to lose like that

8. For everyone who complained about the lack of upsets in the early rounds of the tournament, this Final Four is why that is a good thing. One of the best Final Fours in decades. All 3 games were classics. That doesn’t happen with 11-seed Cinderella teams making it there.

9. To lose a game like that the worst feeling dawg…

10. Duke rubbed some of that choke onto Houston

11. #21 lost the game for all of us dawg

12. Holy meltdown on the last two possessions by that Houston kid. Wow.

13. DUKE is the 2025 national champions !!!
    Houston had no business playing florida …poetic justice !!!!….

14. Houston had the ball with 19 seconds left and didn’t get a shot off. Unbelievable.

15. Houston has too many wannabe Iversons. Use teamwork guys. They deserve that loss.

16. Ok Florida won next please don’t put 14 Sec teams in the tournament. The Sec is going to ruin college basketball the same way they ruined college Football. Outside of the south nobody cares for the SEC .

17. “Houston, we have a problem.” 😂

18. Emmanuel Sharp BLEW it!! 🗑️

19. Give up a 12 point lead you deserve to lose

20. Florida has now earned “Blue Blood” status. They have earned it. Awesome game and final four

21. fake champs. they were outplayed by UConn, Texas Tech and Houston. Their opponents controlled the games but they squeked out victories thanks for Trump and corrupt refs. Clayton is a senior in a day and age when no one stays 4 years unless you really suck and don’t deserve to be in the nba. Florida got lucky they didnt play arkansas or duke. they would have gotten whooped. 3 championships big deal. you’re still half as many as UConn men. 6-0 in the finals UConn men just like Jordan. UConn 3 peated this year. 18 national championships for their basketball program. UNTOUCHABLE are the HUSKIES !!!

22. Bad decisions down the stretch. This turnovers were bad turnovers overs by Houston. You don’t even get a shot off in the national championship with “19” seconds to go. The players were shook and didn’t know what to do.

23. At least Duke didn’t win it good.

24. Basketball fans: Duke had one of the worst choke jobs in history!!!!
    Houston: hold, my Gatorade….

25. HOW COULD THE REFS (debatable title) CALL ONLY FOUR (4) TOTAL FOULS IN THE FIRST HALF and TWENTY SIX (26) IN THE SECOND. HOW COME NONE OF THE TV CHIRPERS NEVER BROUGHT THAT UP IN THEIR POST GAME BS INTERVIEWS???? IS/WAS EVERYONE CAUGHT UP IN THE FIX.

26. Game was rigged. A bunch of 3,6,9 Illuminati/Freemason bullshit. Kelvin Sampson is 69 and Todd Golden is 39. Even Stevie Wonder can see this was fixed.

27. 19 fouls for Houston but 11 for Florida.

28. Let me say this, I’m a sec guy, well a Kentucky guy. I was pulling for Houston, love coach sampson. The man is a class act and a basketball purist, old school. They kept Florida 20 pts below their average, great defense. Bodies were getting knocked down in the first half, no whistle’s. 2nd half, it’s like the refs had 2 whistle’s and a competition on who could blow theirs the most. Ruined the game. I DON’T WATCH CBB TO LISTEN FOR A WHISTLE. At least call it the same in both half’s. I believe it was about to be a blowout and the powers that be couldn’t have that. The game wasn’t decided by the players or the final play.
