Notre Dame at North Carolina

October 3, 2026
img12:00 PM Eastern

I had the UNDER on Notre Dame at Purdue last week, and the Irish's 49-10 win sank it. Notre Dame has scored 41, 52, 27, and 49 this season, won every game by at least 17 points, and outgained its four opponents by an average of 217.5 yards. North Carolina is 2-1 and had last week off, as did the Tar Heels, and its defense has allowed 10, 3, and 28 points. Notre Dame's defense has allowed 8.25 points a game and 53.75 rushing yards a game. North Carolina's offense depends on its running game, which produced 214 yards at Clemson while Billy Edwards Jr. completed 13 of 30 passes for 135 yards. A team that managed 135 passing yards against Clemson faces a Notre Dame defense that has allowed 145.5 passing yards per game. Notre Dame is the right side on the spread this week.
