2 Disc Set - Kansas vs. Oklahoma April 4, 1988 ' Kansas City, Missouri
On April 4th, 1988, Kemper Arena in Kansas City, Missouri played host
to the NCAA national championship game between the Kansas Jayhawks and
the Oklahoma Sooners. The Jayhawks, led by Coach Larry Brown, were the
mid-west region's number six seed where as the Sooners, making their
second title game appearance in school history, came in as the first
seed in the south region. Perhaps considered an underdog coming in,
Kansas used a near home court advantage to defeat Oklahoma 83-79 to
claim their 2nd NCAA title in school history. With just a short commute
from Lawrence to Kansas City, the Jayhawk faithful showed up in full
force to cheer their Jayhawks on to a national championship victory!
Highlighted by what is considered one of the greatest NCAA tournament
performances of all time, Kansas's Danny Manning scored a tournament
leading 163 points in guiding the Jayhawks to a national title, and was
named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player.
