Kansas-North Carolina - March 23, 1957
SI.com recently ranked the best/worst overtime systems in sports. (See link below.) Here, though, are some of our favorite overtime moments in sports, beginning with Kansas-North Carolina. It is remarkable this triple-overtime win in Kansas City for the NCAA basketball championship does not gain more mention as the greatest game ever played, period. All Frank Maguire's Tar Heels did was win back-to-back triple-overtime games in the Final Four and beat Wilt Chamberlain in the title game. Oh, by the way, the Tar Heels finished 32-0.
