Key Matchups in Notre Dame Football’s Black Friday Trip Chapel Hill

After their second bye of the 2020 college football season, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish face what’s likely their final remaining challenge. A rare Friday afternoon clash at Chapel Hill to meet the North Carolina Tar Heels put the spotless 8-0 record of the Irish on the line against a team with a potent offense.

Notre Dame should win if history is any clue, having captured 18 of the previous 20 matchups in this series. However, Irish defenders should be prepared for an expected onslaught, with the Tar Heels currently ranking 10th in the nation in scoring, putting up an average of 43.
