Florida Celebrates 2025 NCAA Title at Gators' Spring Football Game in Photos, Videos

​The Florida Gators men's basketball team celebrated its 2025 national championship during halftime at the Orange & Blue spring football game at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium on Saturday.

Florida secured a 65-63 victory over the Houston Cougars on Monday behind leading scorer Will Richard, who posted 18 points in the win.

Head coach Todd Golden joined his team in front of nearly 60,000 fans in the ceremony wearing the Final Four net that he cut down in the team's win in San Antonio.

"It's just absurd. Today was awesome. I think I credit our administration. Trying to put together things in a short period of time is really difficult to do," Golden said during halftime. "Our guys, especially our older guys, are going to be moving on to go train for the draft. You don't know if they're going to be around. To be able to put something like this together on kind of short notice and do a great job honoring out players in front of our fans, which to me is the most important thing, people that have been supporting us really all year got to see these guys together again one last time. It was special. I really appreciate them doing that for our program."

The Gators took down No. 1 overall seed Auburn 79-73 in the Final Four semifinals, capping off a dominant tournament run with wins over Texas Tech, Maryland, UConn and Norfolk State.

Richard and Walter Clayton Jr. led the Gators in scoring throughout their tournament run, with Richard posting a team tournament-high 34 points in the 79-73 win over Auburn.

The Gators secured their third national championship and their first since their back-to-back run in 2006-07.
