Kansas' thrilling come-from-behind overtime win against Memphis in Monday night's NCAA men's basketball championship gave CBS an impressive 19.50 million viewers. That's just a few ticks below the 19.56 million who tuned in for Florida's victory over Ohio State last year.
The Jayhawks won,
75-68, after trailing by nine points with two minutes and 12 seconds remaining in regulation. Mario Chalmers was the big hero, nailing a three-pointer with 2.1 seconds left to tie the score and force the extra period.
