Notes: Most Outstanding Player (MOP) does not necessarily go to a player on the winning team, but rather the MOP of the entire NCAA tournament.
1981 was the last year a 3rd place consolation game was played.
Oklahoma State was originally known as Oklahoma A&M, before switching to Oklahoma State in 1957. So, the winning teams of 1945 and 1946 were originally Oklahoma A&M.
