Duke Beats Wisconsin To Win 2015 NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship

Congratulations to Duke on winning the 2015 NCAA Men’s basketball championship. The Blue Devils beat the Wisconsin Badgers 68-63 Monday night.

With the win at Lucas Oil Stadium, Duke became the fifth program to win at least five men’s basketball national championships (UCLA, Kentucky, North Carolina, and Indiana).

The win wasn’t without controversy. With less than two minutes remaining in the second half, Wisconsin’s Bronson Koenig missed a layup and the ball fell out of bounds. The replay looked as if the ball grazed Duke small forward Justise Winslow’s fingertips.

Wisconsin head coach Bo Ryan placed a lot of the blame of the loss on officials. He also took a shot at Duke and Kentucky saying the Badgers don’t take “rent-a-players.”
