RxBenefits Battleground 2k25

On November 16, 2025, Auburn and Houston will face off at Birmingham’s Legacy Arena in a highly anticipated neutral-site rematch. Auburn, fresh off a Final Four appearance in the 2025 NCAA Tournament, where they fell to eventual champion Florida, aims to build on their success. Houston, the 2025 national runner-up, seeks redemption after a narrow 65–63 loss to Florida in the championship game. This matchup not only rekindles a budding rivalry but also features two elite programs poised for another deep postseason run.
