The 2000 NCAA Division I men's basketball championship game was the finals of the 2000 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament and it determined the national champion for the 1999–2000 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The game was played on April 3, 2000, at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis, Indiana, and matched No. 1-seeded Michigan State against No. 5-seeded Florida.
The Spartans defeated the Gators, who were appearing in their first championship game, 89–76, earning the Spartans their second national championship. This was the last time a team from the Big Ten won the national championship until rival Michigan did so in 2026.
