13. 1959-60 Ohio State Buckeyes

Another team full of future NBA players, had one big star on this team. Sophomore Jerry Lucas averaged 26 points and 16 rebounds a game during the season while also shooting 63 percent from the field helping Ohio State go 25-3 and win the national title. In fact all five starters averaged at least 11 points a game with John Havilcek, Mel Nowell, Joe Roberts and Larry Siegfried. Despite losing two games early in the season, the Buckeyes bounced back to go 13-1 in Big Ten play and then rolling through the NCAA Tournament. The Buckeyes won every game by at least 15 points, including a 71-51 victory over California in the title game for the school’s only national championship. Oh, also on the team was a guy known as Bobby Knight.
