Top 10 games in NCAA Tournament history: North Carolina Beats Michigan For '93 Title

Posted Mar 21, 2020

And like the first title he won at the Superdome, this one wasn’t sealed until somebody made a costly, almost unbelieveable, error. The Tar Heels won in 1982 on a closing jumper by Michael Jordan and a botched pass. (Associated Press)
