We’ve arrived at the Final Four in this year’s March Madness men’s tournament, and it’s shaping up to be a big one: Kansas and Villanova are both looking strong, but all eyes will be on Duke vs. North Carolina.

More from Rolling Stone

Two of the winningest college teams in history, the Tar Heels and the Blue Devils have a rivalry dating back nearly 100 years (ESPN ranked the teams’ enmity as the third-greatest North American sports rivalry of all time). Of their 256 meetings, UNC edges out Duke with 142 wins to Duke’s 115. However, Duke is the favorite in this weekend’s game.

And yet Duke and UNC have never met in the Final Four, making tonight’s Duke vs. UNC match-up one of the biggest — and most-anticipated — games ever.

Coach K Retirement

To make things even more interesting, Duke’s legendary leader, Mike “Coach K” Krzyzewski, will be retiring after this season. Should UNC win, it will be Coach K’s last game.

Krzyzewski will retire after becoming the winningest college basketball coach of all-time three years ago, now boasting a 1,202 to 367 record, including 101 NCAA Tournament wins and five championship titles over his 47-season career. Almost all of those wins were with Duke, where Coach K spent the last 42 seasons.

However, Coach K has always struggled with Tar Heels more than other opponents. His record against UNC is a mere 50 to 47, deepening the already-intense rivalry.
