Season headlines

 * Michigan became the first program to land four McDonald's All-Americans – Chris Webber, Juwan Howard, Jalen Rose, and Jimmy King – in a single recruiting class. Joined by Ray Jackson, the group of freshmen was known as the Fab Five.
 * The 1992 East Regional Final, a 104-103 Duke win over Kentucky in overtime, is considered by many to be the greatest NCAA tournament game (or college basketball game overall) of all time.
 * Duke held the #1 ranking in both polls the entire season, played in its fifth consecutive Final Four, and became the first repeat national champion since the 1972–73 UCLA Bruins.

Final Four - Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, Minneapolis, Minnesota
# signifies Michigan's final two games, in the 1992 Final Four, were vacated on November 7, 2002, as part of the settlement of the University of Michigan basketball scandal. Unlike forfeiture, a vacated game does not result in the other school being credited with a win, only with the removal of any Michigan wins from all records.
