The 15 team is severely underrated IMHO. I understand why because losses to State and Miami (but sweet 16 team and NIT champion, respectively), plus a late February really struggle win at a not very good VT team, but remember, they were a really young team that did not have a previous year to pull it all together in the past. Had the season been like 5 more games, i think they would have been one of, if not the best team. 15 to me left me wanting more. I think that team was still not even at its full potential.

Hello OP
I watched almost every team on your list and I must admit you did a quality job ranking them. Well done sir.
In my own selfish way may I hijack and ask
2015 vs 2010
I think this one you ranked incorrectly OP. But what a sexy matchup.
That one is interchangeable to me. The 2010 is my favorite team all time. I think they would give the '15 team fits. We've been blessed with some great groups.
02 Duke gets over looked I think because they didn't get far and lost a game they could easily and should have won against Indiana. Yes Boozer was fouled badly at the end but it shouldn't have ever came to that. Jason Williams missed some free throws and so on.
They lost @Florida State @ Virginia @ Maryland and Indiana in 3rd round.
Jason Williams
Chris Duhon
Dahntay Jones
Mike Dunleavy
Carlos Boozer
They are up there with 99 and 04 in my mind.

Agree and the 01 team was great. Battier was that team's Laettner; by year's end he was playing at such a ridiculously high level. And J Will when he was on was as dominant as any college guard I've ever seen. And Boozer is underrated. You could make a case for any of our championship teams. I guess the tie would have to go to the repeat champs.
