A win for the Tar Heels gives them a decent shot at maybe getting to a New Year’s Six bowl, but a loss for the Golden Domers puts their College Football Playoff dreams on life support. This is one of the best games of Thanksgiving Weekend.

Notre Dame will get off to a slow start in this one and will trail the Tar Heels by two scores for much of the first half.

The combination of Notre Dame’s defense and slow start offensively does just enough to ensure the under hits on Friday evening for you.
