It’s the Auburn Tigers vs Alabama State Hornets in the March Madness bracket. Here’s our prediction, pick for the 2025 NCAA Tournament basketball game

Micah Simpson’s nearly full court pass gets tipped and ends up in the hands of Amarr Knox who lays the ball in with one second remaining to give Alabama State a 70-68 victory over Saint Francis (PA) in the First Four of the NCAA Tournament. This is the first-ever win for Alabama State in the NCAA Tournament.

It wasn't a buzzer-beater, but Alabama State made a shot off a Hail Mary pass in the final second to take down Saint Francis (PA) in the opening First Four game.
