How UNC and Duke’s NCAA Tournament Struggles Are Reshaping College Basketball’s Legacy
North Carolina led Kansas by 15 at halftime of the 2022 National Championship game, but lost 72-69. As previously mentioned, the Tar Heels led VCU by 19 in both programs’ First Round matchup, but lost 82-78 in overtime.
The Blue Devils led Houston by 14 in the 2025 Final Four – and later six points with 34 seconds left – but lost 70-67. Duke looked in control Sunday, but UConn roared back in the second half.
Only 2 schools have lost 2 NCAA Tournament games since 2015 after leading by 14+ points in the 2nd half per @sportradar:
