Cameron finale won't be easy for Mike Krzyzewski, Duke

On Saturday night at 6 p.m. ET on ESPN, we will bear witness to one of the most anticipated events in college basketball. Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski will be on the sideline for his final game at historic Cameron Indoor Stadium. And to add a little extra intrigue, the No. 4 Blue Devils' opponent is the North Carolina Tar Heels. The greatest rivalry in college hoops will be renewed for the final time at Cameron with the legend presiding over the Blue Devils.

The anticipation couldn't be higher, nor could ticket prices. On the secondary market, the cheapest ticket runs around $3,000 and the most expensive is around $80,000. In the offseason, a package of four courtside seats was auctioned off for charity at the price tag of $1 million.

It will be a scene many of us never forget, but, because this is what we do here, what's the likelihood that you're cashing a winning ticket when the pomp and circumstance is over?

Coach K is 486-434-14 against the spread overall since the 1993-94 season (as far back as our database goes). But the numbers against North Carolina don't paint as pretty of a picture if you are a betting backer of Duke. Since 1993-94, the Blue Devils are 26-37-1 ATS against their biggest rival and a paltry 8-19 ATS at home.
