NCAA at 75 - College Basketball

1. UCLA, 1968

This just wasn't fair. Lew Alcindor scored 34 points and grabbed 16 rebounds as his team earned a 78-55 win over North Carolina in the national title game. Alcindor earned MOP honors that year. In a rematch of the "Game of the Century," Elvin Hayes struggled as Houston suffered a 32-point loss against the Bruins in the Final Four. This UCLA team was that good. Lucius Allen, Lynn Shackelford and Mike Warren were all-tourney team members along with Alcindor. The Bruins won three of four tournament games by 21 points or more that season. With Alcindor inside and a strong squad around him, these Bruins would have given opponents fits, regardless of generation. -- Myron Medcalf
