If you believe in trends, and history repeating itself, then the Villanova-UNC matchup will be a significant one at the Final Four.

Two of North Carolina's last three NCAA Championship runs went through Villanova, and 'Nova's only NCAA title went through UNC.

Carolina beat the Wildcats in the 1982 East Regional Final, then again in the 2005 Sweet Sixteen. Villanova topped the Tar Heels in the 1985 Elite Eight.
