Top 5 margin of victory averages for NCAA Tournament champs

2. 2009 North Carolina

Though UNC may have suffered the loss to Villanova in 2016, that doesn’t mean it hasn’t had its time dominating opponents. In the 2009 tournament, the Tar Heels won six straight over Radford, LSU, Gonzaga, Oklahoma, Villanova and Michigan State by an average margin of 20.2 points.

The team’s games were never really that close during the tournament as their largest margin of victory was 43 points over Radford in the first round and the smallest margin was still an impressive 12-point win over Oklahoma in the Elite Eight. They ended up handling the Spartans easily in the championship game, winning 89-72 for the title.
