Well that is entirely subjective of course. Which collapse are you claiming is bigger?

Duke never had more than 95% probability of winning the game in the last 3 minutes, it was only at 90% with 87 seconds to go. They never had any % greater than 99-- I believe Arizona had a 98.5% chance of winning in the last minute vs Illinois in 2005 and were at 99.9% with 4 minutes to go up by 14,

Also, I forgot about this game:
"Northern Iowa-Texas A&M 2016
The worst collapse in March Madness history? It has to be Northern Iowa blowing a 12-point lead to Texas A&M in the final 34 seconds of the 2016 NCAA Tournament second round. Arkansas 2025 and Arizona 2005 aren't far behind, however."

This one takes the cake. 12point choke job in the last 31 seconds easily wins.

Those are good choices but I would still put Duke ahead given they had the No 2 rated team by KenPom of all time. So it wasnt just the raw numbers but the fact they choked as an historically great team with the player of the year and No 1 draft pick.

I did not realize Duke made one FG on ten minutes. Wow.
(My earlier post said "a point lead late" when I meant a 6 point lead late.)

Illinois is considering a reunion with Adam Miller, who hit 42% of his 3’s last year at Arizona StateMost valuable as in "if they sell the team"?

I really liked him and was sorry to see him go. Another 4 college guy, if you count his next stop whether Illinois or not.
