Tournament trivia - The Fans Speak Out

Basketball Digest, Summer, 2002 by Todd

Congratulations to Indiana on a spectacular run in the NCAA Tournament. I'm a big Illini fan from Illinois, but I'm still impressed with the Hoosiers.

Who is the lowest NCAA Tournament seed to make it to the title game? Who is the lowest seed to win it all?

One word, Todd: Villanova. The No. 8-seeded Wildcats' miracle run past Georgetown to win the 1985 NCAA Tournament makes them both the lowest seed to make a title game and to win a title.
