Kansas pulled out a 72-69 victory, and the final few minutes were absolutely wild. UNC even had multiple chances to tie the game in the closing seconds but just couldn’t pull it off.
When the clock hit zero, the Jayhawks were crowned national champs.
The craziest part of the game was that Kansas was down double digits late into the first half, and it looked like UNC was going to roll.
However, Bill Self’s team eventually put things together and pulled off a comeback for the ages.

Props to Kansas for getting the job done! There’s no question that they absolutely deserved to cut the nets down when it was all said and done.
