Head-to-head records of college basketball "blue bloods"

(updated at the end of calendar year 2016)

The top six programs in college basketball history are almost universally recognized among historians as: Kentucky, North Carolina, UCLA, Kansas, Duke and Indiana.  The first tier is clearly UK, UNC and UCLA, with the other three lagging a bit behind.

Here is a look at their head-to-head results, listed by winning percentage:

1) UNC .558 (177-140)
2) UK .557 (88-70)
3) IU .481 (51-55)
4) Duke .466 (139-159)
5) UCLA .449 (31-38)
6) KU .354 (29-53)

The breakdown...

UK is:
32-25 against IU
22-7 against KU
15-23 against UNC
12-9 against Duke
7-6 against UCLA

UNC is:
134-108 against Duke
23-15 against UK
8-3 against UCLA
6-5 against KU
6-9 against IU

IU is:
25-32 against UK
9-6 against UNC
8-6 against Kansas
6-6 against UCLA
3-5 against Duke

Duke is:
108-134 against UNC
10-6 against UCLA
9-12 against UK
7-4 against KU
5-3 against IU

UCLA is:
10-7 against KU

6-10 against Duke
6-7 against UK
3-8 against UNC

KU is:
6-8 against IU
7-10 against UCLA

Notes:
- UNC has a winning record against everyone except IU (6-9)
- UK has a winning record against everyone except UNC (15-23)
- Obviously the most matchups in any series is UNC/Duke (242 games)
- Kansas has a losing record against every other blue blood
- UCLA's only winning record is against Kansas (10-7)
- UofL (probably the 7th best team all-time - although they rated above IU in my most recent analysis) has losing records against all the top six teams shown here.  As of the end of calendar year 2016, the Cardinals are 5-7 against Duke, 16-34 against UK, 8-10 against IU, 5-11 against UNC, 5-6 against Kansas, and 7-15 against UCLA.
