This might not be one of the best North Carolina teams, but they still managed to crush Cinderella Saint Peter's Sunday night.

Duke, Kansas and Villanova are all in too.  In the end, this resembles the Who's Who of Past Final Fours.

Duke will play the UNC while the Wildcats and Jayhawks will meet again in the Final Four.

“I saw something that Bill Self said about the regional championship game,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said of his Kansas counterpart, “it really is the biggest game a college coach has to coach, because it gets you into the promised land.

"For me to have that, I guess it’s 17 times now, that’s a big-time thing for me. I’m so proud of that,” Krzyzewski said, “that my teams have put us in that position and that’s we’ve won now 13 of them, and whatever happens afterward happens. But it is a heck of a thing. We’ve won a lot in the tournament, and we’ve won a lot of games, but Final Fours are big.”
