The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will go against the North Carolina Tar Heels in NCAAF action in Kenan Memorial Stadium, NC, on Saturday, September 24, 2022, at 3:30 PM ET.

 

In their season opener against No. 2 Ohio State, the Fighting Irish fought a tough game before falling to Marshall in Week 2 in one of the greatest upsets in school history.

 

Last week, they were down 17-14 against Cal in the fourth quarter when they scored 10 points in a six-minute span to grab the lead. On the final play, Cal had an opportunity to tie the game, but it was unable to make a catch in the end zone.

 

After a bye week, the Fighting Irish will travel for the second time this year before taking on No. 19 BYU.

 

In the game against Cal, quarterback Drew Pyne completed 17 of 23 throws for 150 yards and 2 touchdowns, while running backs Chris Tyree and Audric Estime collaborated for 140 rushing yards on 35 runs, averaging four yards per carry.

 

With a 20-2 record overall, Notre Dame crushed North Carolina in the past.

 

  • The Notre Dame Fighting Irish is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 matches. 
  • The Fighting Irish is 12-4 SU in their last 16 matches. 
  • Notre Dame is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 matches against North Carolina.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs North Carolina Tar Heels Predictions 9/24/2022

 

After playing two games on the road against Group of Five opponents, North Carolina is coming home. The Tar Heels defeated Appalachian State 63-61 to start their road trip off right.

 

Despite giving up 40 points in the fourth quarter, they managed to hang on for the victory. Last week, they went to Georgia State and won 35-28, covering the 7-point spread in the process.

 

Their offense was among the best in the nation thus far, ranking fourth nationally and first in the ACC with 51.3 points scored per game.

 

Drake Maye, a redshirt freshman quarterback, is tied for first in the FBS with 930 passing yards and 11 touchdowns.

 

He is up against a Notre Dame defense that only allowed Cal to convert 4 of 15 third downs and 1 of 3 fourth downs.

 

On Saturday afternoon, the North Carolina rushing offense, which is spearheaded by running back Omarion Hampton, will undoubtedly need to help Maye out.

 

He carried the ball 38 times for 228 yards and 5 touchdowns, and Maye carried the ball 26 times for 146 yards and a score.

 

Six receivers accumulated between 100 and 175 receiving yards in a relatively evenly distributed passing assault. In its previous nine home matches, North Carolina won eight of them.

 

  • The total went OVER in 4 of North Carolina’s last 5 matches. 
  • The North Carolina Tar Heels are 4-2 SU in their last 6 matches. 
  • The total drew OVER in 4 of the Tar Heels’ last 6 matches against Notre Dame.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs North Carolina Tar Heels. The NCAAF pick for this game is the North Carolina Tar Heels.

 

Despite being extremely motivated following their defeat by Marshall, the Fighting Irish narrowly defeated Cal at home last week.

 

They need to make a number of improvements, but a matchup with a high-scoring club is not the appropriate moment to do it. One of the finest offenses in the nation, North Carolina feels at ease playing at home.

 

Once the Tar Heels score a couple of fast touchdowns, Notre Dame may very well collapse psychologically. North Carolina will win by a predicted score of 30-27.
