How many NCAA Division I teams have finishes the season undefeated (including post-season, not just regular season)?

Yep. Illinois came pretty close in 2005, as well. The legacy of Matt Sylvester lives on.Laley23 wrote:Indiana State in 1979fiction wrote:

Indiana -- Last team do it, 1976
UCLA -- I know they did it twice during their 88-game win streak, I wouldn't be surprised if they did it another time as well
San Francisco -- I believe they were the first team to do it

Ehh. I don't know other than just listing off big programs. I think NC St. technically finished a season undefeated, since they were on probation and couldn't accept an NCAA bid.

Most tournament appearances, without appearing in a national championship game. Top 5?

UNC 32-0 in 1956/57
UK 25-0 in 1953/53 (turned down bid because 3 players were ruled ineligible for the NCAA tournament)

Notre Dame has the most with 30.
Texas is #2 with 28.
Gonzaga is wrong. They've only been 13 times.
There's a logjam at the #5 spot, so 5 teams left. Purdue would have also been tied for #5.
