Kansas Beats UNC Behind Historic Comeback to Win 2022 NCAA Men's Championship

The Kansas Jayhawks are national champions for the fourth time in school history.

Kansas defeated the North Carolina Tar Heels 72-69 in a thrilling, back-and-forth 2022 NCAA men's basketball tournament championship game in the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on Monday. David McCormack, Jalen Wilson and Remy Martin led the way for the victors, who were the No. 1 seed in the Midwest Region and took home the title for the first time since 2008.

They also made history by overcoming a 16-point deficit, which was the largest comeback in national championship game history.
