- 2008 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament championship game in San Antonio:
- Kansas 75, Memphis 68 (OT):
- Kansas wins its third official national championship. The Jayhawks lead at halftime, using their size to score consistently in the paint. Memphis stays close on the outside shooting of Chris Douglas-Roberts, then goes ahead by nine with 2:12 remaining after Derrick Rose gets a hot hand. But the Tigers' old Achilles' heel, poor free throw shooting, comes back to hurt them at the worst possible time, allowing Kansas to claw back within three in the final seconds. Mario Chalmers' 20-footer with 2 seconds left sends the game into an extra period. Overtime is all Jayhawks, with Memphis hitting only one of eight shots.

- Memphis 78, UCLA 63
- Memphis sets an NCAA record with its 38th win of the season. The Tigers establish a quick pace early and maintain it by keeping fresh legs on the floor. Guards Chris Douglas-Roberts and Derrick Rose score 28 and 25 points, respectively. Memphis' frontcourt defense keeps the ball out of Kevin Love's hands; the Bruins' star freshman accounts for only four field goals and 12 points. The Tigers put the game away at the foul line, hitting 20 of 23 free throws.
- Kansas 84, North Carolina 66
- In a game of extreme momentum swings, Tar Heels coach Roy Williams loses to his former school. UNC opens extremely sloppily, committing 10 first-half turnovers and falling behind by 28 at one point. Kansas returns the favor, and North Carolina slowly crawls within four. But the Jayhawks pull away late behind guard Brandon Rush, who finishes with 25 points. Tyler Hansbrough, faced with extremely tight defense from Kansas' deep frontcourt, has a modest 17 points.
