Posted Oct 11, 2008
The most storied program in college football will make a rare visit to Chapel Hill today to take on North Carolina in a meeting of young teams getting better and growing more confident every week. Resurgent Notre Dame will be North Carolina's opponent in Kenan Stadium at 3:30. Both teams are 4-1 heading into a game that will match UNC's swarming secondary against one of the nation's top passing attacks, led by quarterback Jimmy Clausen.
