Of course you can google this and get the answer in 0.3 seconds, but for those who would like a fun Friday trivia question -- can you name the eight teams that have won at least 3 NCAA Men's Basketball championships? The top 5 are gimmes. If you want a harder question, add in the seven other teams that have won 2 championships... without google, I would be really impressed if someone could give all 15.

Also, can you name the only team to win a NCAA tournament game without ever losing one? 8) (Answer expires on Saturday.)

If I'm reading jorr correctly, Illinois is easily in the first 8.

I see what I did wrong. Still, not bad.

Somehow I got stuck here...can't believe I forgot about UConn...also forgot Louisville had two before Pitino won his...

As for the two time winners, I knew Michigan State, Florida, Villanova and San Fransisco (remember seeing that in an almanac growing up and it took root in my memory).

Actually, I believe the list is all the teams I categorized as super-elite- UNC, Duke, Kentucky, Indiana, Kansas, And UCLA.

The other two are UConn and Louisville. If you want to say that UConn and Louisville are better programs than Illinois, I'm not going to argue with you. But there are reasons I would say they aren't better jobs for a head coach.

Without looking at google or the responses here..

UNC
UCLA
Duke
Indiana
Kentucky
Louisville
UCONN
Kansas


I think that's right?

As for the teams the other 7 teams that won 2...

Florida
Ohio State I think back in the Jerry Lucas days
Villanova
Michigan State (or do they have 3 and UConn has 2?)
Ok State maybe in the Henry Iba days?

That's all I got without spending way too much time racking my brain

I think UConn has 4. Oklahoma State won at least one with that big stiff Bob Kurland? I think DePaul went to the NIT because OK St. wasn't eligible for some reason and Meyer did Iba a courtesy and let him take the NCAA.

I believe Michigan vacated. I'm not sure if that means Seton Hall won though.
