What's up, everyone? I'm curious about the most successful teams in college basketball - specifically, which team has the most wins in championship games?
The University of Kentucky currently holds the record for most wins in college basketball history, with over 2300 wins as of the 2024-2025 season. However, when it comes to the most championships, it's important not to conflate that with most wins. The University of California, Los Angeles, better known as UCLA, holds the record for the most national championships at 11. These victories took place predominantly in the era of legendary coach John Wooden, who led the Bruins to an unprecedented run of 10 championships in 12 years from 1964 to 1975. College basketball is full of storied programs and rivalries, and the competition is always fierce!
