The North Carolina–NC State rivalry, also known locally as the Carolina–State rivalry, NCSU-UNC rivalry, or other similar permutations, is an ongoing series of athletic competitions between the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and North Carolina State University, both of which are located in the Research Triangle district of North Carolina. The intensity of the rivalry is driven by the universities' similar size and the fact that the schools are separated by only 20 miles. Both are charter members of the Atlantic Coast Conference and are part of the Tobacco Road schools. The most prominent sports in the rivalry are football and basketball. For most of the first half of the 20th century, both schools considered the other to be its main rival. While NC State still considers UNC to be its main rival, many UNC fans & alums view their rivalry with fellow Tobacco Road school Duke as a bigger rivalry, particularly in basketball; however, comments made by football coaches of both teams brought new heat to their rivalry in November 2011.[1]

In the ACC, North Carolina and NC State were matched up as "permanent rivals";[2] NC State is in the conference's Atlantic Division and North Carolina is in the Coastal Division. The games are one of the biggest in the state of North Carolina.

The two schools are also known for their basketball history. They have won 7 NCAA championships between them (North Carolina 5, NC State 2), and 27 of the past 57 ACC Tournaments (North Carolina 17, NC State 10).
