While ranked matchups are always fun to watch, there are some other great games on the schedule worth paying attention to, including Notre Dame vs. North Carolina and Auburn vs. Tennessee.
Notre Dame comes into this game as the 3rd-ranked team in the nation. Skeptics would say that the team hasn’t faced anyone this year, and there is a case to be made. They’ve played Wisconsin, Rice, Michigan State, and Purdue in their four games. They are 4-0 and have outscored their opponents 199-33 in those games. Clearly, their offense is rolling, but perhaps defensive genius Bill Belichick can stop them.

North Carolina is 2-1 for the season and had a bye week to prepare for this game. They started the season overseas and played TCU for the second straight year. However, this year’s game went differently, with the Tar Heels winning 15-10. Then they beat East Tennessee State before losing 28-20 to Clemson two weeks ago. With extra time to prepare, can they find a way to slow down Notre Dame?
Auburn comes into this game with a 3-1 record, including a 1-1 mark in the SEC. They’ve had some challenging games and have looked solid in all four contests. They started the year narrowly beating Baylor, winning 17-16. Then they played Southern Miss and won by 35 points. Florida has looked like one of the best teams in the country, and Auburn hung with them. Last week, Auburn was able to win the game over Vanderbilt.
Tennessee matches Auburn’s record, and they are currently 17th in the nation. They didn’t have a very tough schedule to start the year, beating Furman by almost 50 points. The Volunteers then went to play Georgia Tech and won 45-24. Another blowout win over Kennesaw State set them up for their showdown last week with Texas. It was a close game, but ultimately they fell short.
