Final Four 2025: Early betting odds for Florida Gators vs Auburn Tigers in NCAA Tournament
Final Four 2025: Early betting odds for Florida Gators vs Auburn Tigers in NCAA Tournament March Madness is now narrowed down the the Final Four, which includes the Florida Gators taking on the Auburn Tigers in a Southeastern Conference rematch to see who gets to play for the national title. If you are looking for the early betting odds ahead of this Saturday's affair in San Antonio, we have BetMGM's initial numbers just below for your perusal. Todd Golden's team has won 10 straight games stretching from the end of the regular-season schedule through the SEC Tournament — in which they came away with the championship — plus their four games so far in the Big Dance. It has not exactly been smooth sailing for the Orange and Blue, which needed comeback efforts to overcome the UConn Huskies and Texas Tech Red Raiders, but alas, the program is in the Final Four for the first time since 2014. Bruce Pearl's squad has won four in a row since dropping their game against the Tennessee Volunteers in the SEC Tournament Semifinals, registering double-digit victories against their first three opponents before a closer call with the Michigan State Spartans in the Elite Eight. Auburn will be looking to avenge that 90-81 loss to Florida back on Feb. 8. Florida vs Auburn Final Four game odds: Odds courtesy of BetMGM as of 10:50 a.m. ET on Monday, March 31 Spread: Florida (2.5) Money Line: -150 / +225 Over-Under: 160.5 Florida vs Auburn Final Four prediction, pick: Make no mistake, this will be a matchup of epic proportions that might even overshadow the eventual national championship game. The Gators prevailed over the Tigers on the road as part of their stretch of 16 wins over the last 17 games but a lot has happened since then. It will be a battle on the court and a chess match on the bench — only the best team will move on. That best team will be Florida this Saturday, but by a hair.
