Kansas beat UNC and finished the largest comeback in Championship Game history

There’s no denying that winning a championship, in any sense, is an amazing feeling. It’s one of the best moments of your life, and you’ll remember where you were forever. Win that title by overcoming historic adversity at that, and it’ll be that much sweeter.

Kansas beat North Carolina, 72-69, to win the National Championship on Monday night. It’s the fourth title for one of the most prestigious programs in college basketball. Those facts alone should make the Jayhawks extremely proud. But this was no ordinary three-point championship win.

You see, Kansas (eventually) won by completing the largest title game comeback in the 83-year history of the Men’s NCAA tournament.
