The Kentucky Wildcats Have the Most Wins in NCAA Tournament History and Are the Favorites To Win it All in 2012

The 2012 Final Four is set, and it’s set with four of the “usual suspects.“

Not only that, these four teams – Kentucky, Louisville, Kansas and Ohio State – all rank amongst the greatest schools in NCAA Tournament history, in terms of tourney wins.

Kentucky, in fact, has the most wins in tournament history with 111.  The Wildcats, North Carolina Tar Heels and UCLA Bruins all have more than 100 tournament wins.

Kansas is fifth with 92.  Then there is a dropoff with Louisville in sixth with 64 wins.  Ohio State can crack the top ten with a win over the Jayhawks.

Enjoy the Final Four!

Thanks to sports-reference’s play index.  There are a lot of outlets reporting different numbers of wins for some of these teams, but sports-reference is my most reliable source.
