NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Best. Comeback. Ever. Sounds pretty good next to Rock Chalk, Jayhawk.

What looked like a lost cause turned into one of the sweetest wins ever for Kansas.

The Jayhawks brought their fourth NCAA title back to Allen Fieldhouse on Monday thanks to a second-half flurry that erased a 16-point deficit and eventually overcame North Carolina 72-69 in an epic battle of power programs.

It was the largest comeback in national championship history, surpassing the 1963 title game when Loyola overcame a 15-point deficit to beat Cincinnati at the buzzer, 60-58.

“We just locked in as a family, as a team, and that’s what we do,” said Kansas big man David McCormack, after making last two baskets of the game. “We overcome the odds. We overcome adversity. We’re just built for this.”

McCormack scored the go-ahead bucket from close range with 1:21 left, then another at the 22-second mark to put the Jayhawks ahead by three.

North Carolina missed its final four shots, including Caleb Love’s desperation 3 at the buzzer. His heave came up short after officials ruled that Kansas guard DaJuan Harris Jr., stepped out on an inbounds pass with 4.3 seconds left.

The Tar Heels went scoreless over the final 1:41. They couldn't find an answer for KU over the final 20 minutes.

“They were penetrating and doing whatever they wanted,” Love said.

After McCormick’s go-ahead bucket, Love drove to the basket but his shot got blocked. North Carolina grabbed an offensive rebound and got the ball to Armando Bacot under the bucket. But he lost his footing and turned it over, then limped off the court, unable to return.

“I thought I really got the angle that I wanted and then I just rolled my ankle," Bacot said.

That put Brady Manek, not as good a defender, on McCormack, and the Kansas big man backed in Manek for the shot that put the Jayhawks ahead by three.

“When we had to have a basket, we went to Big Dave, and he delivered,” said Kansas coach Bill Self, who has two of the program's four championships.

McCormack and Jalen Wilson led KU with 15 points each. Christian Braun scored 10 of his 12 in the second half and transfer Remy Martin had 11 of his 14 over the final 20 minutes. The Jayhawks outscored Carolina 47-29 in the second half.

“When we saw our own blood, we didn’t panic and we came out the second half coming in hot,” Self said. “I was thinking at the 14-minute mark, ‘There’s no way these guys can play for 20 minutes defense like this,' but they did.”

The Tar Heels shot 11 for 40 in the second half.

But it was Kansas that couldn't buy a basket late in the first half, as Carolina ran over and around the Jayhawks during a 16-0 run. The Tar Heels led 40-25 at the break. Then, top-seeded KU (34-6) started trapping and pressing more, moving the ball around on offense, and Carolina started getting a taste of what everyone else has this season: You can't stop 'em all.

The Jayhawks went on a 31-10 run to take a six-point lead at the 10-minute mark and set up a fantastic finish.

Bacot had 15 points and 15 rebounds to become the first player to record double-doubles in all six tournament games. He finished the season with 31 double-doubles, but it was not enough. Carolina was trying to join 1985 Villanova as only the second 8 seed to win March Madness.

Instead, the Tar Heels (29-10) fell one win short and dropped to 6-6 all-time in title games. This was their record 21st — and possibly most unlikely — trip to the Final Four. They made it to the final by beating Duke in a back-and-forth thriller and sending Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski into retirement.

“I can’t remember a time in my life where I should be disappointed," said rookie UNC coach Hubert Davis, who was trying to become the first person to lead a team to a title in his first full year as head coach. "But I am filled with so much pride.”

A great season — but the banner will hang in Lawrence.

And McCormack, thanks to his late-game heroics, will go down in KU lore, along with Mario Chalmers (2008), Danny Manning (and the miracles in 1988) and the rest of the Kansas greats.

This title was three years in the making. KU was 28-3 and the odds-on favorite heading into March of 2020. Then, the COVID-19 pandemic hit and stopped both the Jayhawks, and the season, in their tracks.

Seven players from that roster are on this one, as well. In some of their minds there were no “what-might-have-beens” about 2020 -- they knew they would have won it. They won this one instead, and showed, once again, it’s never good to count them out.

While this wasn't quite the 47-15 beatdown they put on Miami over the final 20 minutes in the Elite Eight, it was still darn impressive given the circumstances.

Ochai Agbaji, who was named the Final Four's most outstanding player, finished with 12 points and found breathing room after UNC’s lockdown guard, Leaky Black, got his fourth foul 6 minutes into the second half.

“This is a special group of guys," Agbaji said. "We’re going down in history. All I got to say is, ‘Rock Chalk, baby.’”

MANHATTAN, Kan.&nbsp;– Stan Parrish, the 31st&nbsp;head coach in K-State football history who was at the helm of the Wildcat program from 1986 to 1988, passed away Sunday at the age of 75. Nicknamed "Air Parrish" for his multiple, pass-oriented offensive strategy, Parrish came to Manhattan in 1986 after serving the previous two seasons as the head coach at Marshall. Parrish's career began at Windham High School in Windham, Ohio, before serving as a graduate assistant for two years at Purdue and one season as an assistant coach at Division III Wabash College in Crawfordsville, Indiana. He quickly took over as head coach of the Little Giants in 1978, putting together a 42-3-1 record over five seasons, which included a perfect 10-0 mark in his final season in 1982. Following his time at K-State, Parrish worked for six years at Rutgers before serving as the quarterbacks coach at Michigan from 1996 to 2001. While in Ann Arbor, he tutored future NFL quarterbacks Brian Griese and Tom Brady, while he helped the Wolverines win a national championship in 1997. Parrish moved on to the NFL, serving as the quarterbacks coach for Tampa Bay in 2002 and 2003, helping the Buccaneers win Super Bowl XXXVI. He moved back to the college ranks in 2005 to coach at Ball State, a place he stayed for six seasons, which included the final three years as head coach. His last stint as a football coach came at Eastern Michigan, where he was the offensive coordinator and later the interim head coach in 2013. Parrish is survived by his wife, the former Ruth Purdy, son Andrew and daughter Libby. He earned his bachelor's degree from Heidelberg in 1969, where he played defensive back from 1965-68.&nbsp;&nbsp;

⚾ Tigers drop series opener at Missouri Southern

PITTSBURG, Kan. – After securing its first MIAA win of the season with a win in game one, Fort Hays State put together a late four-run rally to sweep its doubleheader with Pittsburg State on Friday . The Tigers took game one 5-1, then turned an 8-5 deficit into a 9-8 win with their last-inning rally in game two. FHSU is now 16-17-1 overall on the season and 2-4 in the MIAA, while PSU moved to 21-14 overall, 3-7 in the MIAA.

Game 1: Fort Hays State 5, Pittsburg State 1 Fort Hays State jumped out to a 5-0 lead early and&nbsp;Savanah Egger&nbsp;limited the Gorillas to just one run in a complete-game effort in the pitching circle as the Tigers notched their first MIAA win of the season.

Jessica Espinoza&nbsp;reached base to start the game on an error by the Gorillas and a few moments later, she came in to score on a sacrifice bunt by&nbsp;Loren Beggs, giving the Tigers a 1-0 lead.

In the third inning,&nbsp;Kiana Blake&nbsp;and Espinoza sparked a rally with back-to-back singles.&nbsp;Sarah Tiffany&nbsp;followed with a 2-RBI double to score both.&nbsp;Loren Beggs&nbsp;knocked Tiffany home with an RBI single and then the Tigers loaded the bases with&nbsp;Sara Breckbill&nbsp;drawing a walk and&nbsp;Madison Pierce&nbsp;picking up a single.&nbsp;Regan Curry&nbsp;pushed one more run across with a sacrifice fly to score Beggs, making it 5-0 Tigers after two and a half innings.

Meanwhile in the pitching circle, Egger allowed only three baserunners over the first five innings. She held the Gorillas scoreless until the sixth when back-to-back singles set up runners at first and third. Egger got a strikeout before the Gorillas pushed their one run across on a sacrifice fly. She got a groundout to end any further threat from the Gorillas.

Egger finished with eight strikeouts in her complete-game effort, allowing just five hits and one walk. The Tigers did all of their scoring damage against Abby Atkin, who allowed five runs (four earned) on four hits in just 2.1 innings of work. Madison Morris held the Tigers in check the final 4.2 innings that she relieved.

Game 2: Fort Hays State 9, Pittsburg State 8 Fort Hays State put together a late rally for a come-from-behind 9-8 win in game two. The Tigers scored four runs in the seventh inning to go from three down to one up.&nbsp;Savanah Egger&nbsp;came in to preserve the lead and got the job done to give the Tigers a sweep of the doubleheader.

The Tigers held the lead early in this game when&nbsp;Madison Pierce&nbsp;hit a two-run homer in the second inning. The Gorillas immediately responded with four runs in the bottom half of the inning to take their first lead of the day at 4-2.

The Tigers pulled back even with the Gorillas in the top of the third when&nbsp;Regan Curry&nbsp;came up with a clutch 2-out, 2-RBI single up the middle with the bases loaded. But, the Gorillas once again surged into the lead with three runs in the bottom half of the inning.

The Tigers had a prime opportunity to score multiple runs in the fifth, but came away with only one on a sacrifice fly by&nbsp;Betsy Parmley. The Gorillas got the run right back in the bottom half of the inning and led 8-5 going to the sixth.

The Tigers needed a rally in the seventh and&nbsp;Loren Beggs&nbsp;sparked it with a single to leadoff the inning.
