When you think of college basketball you have to think of Duke and UNC and the history of one of the greatest rivalries in sports. No matter who you are in NC you have some sort of opinion. But in Coach K's last season there is still history to be made. For the first time ever Duke and UNC will meet in the Final Four with everything on the line.

Will the Blue Devils get their revenge after the Tarheels spoiled Coach K's final game? Or will North Carolina continue to roll? One thing is for certain, a team from North Carolina will be in the National Championship game. Will it be light or dark blue is the only thing left to determine? If you're a fan of college basketball you either love or hate this matchup. The networks will be beating it to death, the fans of the teams are having panic attacks, the fans of any other teams want to beat their head against a wall. But regardless I will be watching,

I know what shade of blue I (reluctantly) will be wearing. You've heard my feelings, now see what that fans have to say about Duke and UNC meeting in the Final Four.

The stage is set

Not the matchup some fans wanted

Others couldn't be happier

Is it fate?

It's sure to be the matchup the NCAA dreamt of

As someone who hates both teams this is exactly my reaction

Just goes to show how any team can win any game

This exactly

Knowing what people paid for the last game in Cameron I'm scared to look

Who do you have as the villian?

Someone convince me this wasn't scripted

Definitely the biggest game between the pair ever, just a month or so after the previous winner of that title

Fans are confident

If you believe games are fixed this could be convincing evidence

The only reason I can get on board with this
