How many NCAA division 1 basketball teams have gone undefeated?

1 time 1974-75 bob knights Indiana hoosiers

Actually, UNLV did it in 1990-91 (for the regular season). There stil could be others, I haven't researched it.

Actually UCLA did it at least 4 times: 1963-64, 1966-67, 1971-72, and 1997-73. I say "at least" 4 times since my reference only lists undefeated seasons that include the tournament, so I'm not 100% sure that there were no additional undefeated regular seasons.

Actually, North Carolina did it in 1924 and 1957, winning national championships in both seasons (the '24 one is sometimes disputed due to how it was received...the Helms Foundation at that time voted a team to be the national champion).

Which basketball team leads the NCAA in winning percentage?

The answer should be Kentucky, but I think Kansas is right there too. Remember this is all time winning percentage and some schools like UCLA and Duke with higher NCAA tournament percentages actually have significantly lower overall win percentages because of several years of .500 or below overall records. In the last 75 years, Kentucky has had maybe 2 losing seasons and the most 30+ wins seasons in college basketball during that time. Kansas too hasn't had too many stinkers if my memory serves me. Not definitive, but I think UK and KU are your best two answers. ----------------------- Through the 2007-08 season: 1. Kentucky - .760 (1,966-621) 2. North Carolina - .736 (1,950-699) 3. UNLV - .713 (1,037-418) 4. Kansas - .712 (1,943-785) 5. UCLA - .697 (1,646-717)
