UNC vs. Notre Dame Prediction & Preview: Tar Heels Aim for Rare Win Over Fighting Irish

Posted Sep 23, 2022
Notre Dame's offense is averaging 1.57 points per drive this season (60th out of 65 Power 5 teams), while North Carolina's defense is allowing 2.83 points/drive this season (64th out of 65 Power 5 teams). If Notre Dame is going to win Saturday, it will be because its defense prevents it from becoming a shootout. Prediction: Notre Dame 34, UNC 31. (Athlon Sports)
