Notre Dame’s rushing woes and UNC’s QB struggles set stage for ACC clash

Notre Dame (4-0) faces North Carolina (2-1) in Chapel Hill, with the Irish seeking to fix a struggling rushing attack and the Tar Heels aiming to overcome inconsistent quarterback play. Notre Dame ranks 98th in rushing, while UNC’s Billy Edwards Jr. has struggled with accuracy. Both teams boast strong defenses and low penalty rates, but Notre Dame’s offensive line and new running back Jonaz Walton are key variables. UNC must improve downfield passing and pass rush to compete against Notre Dame’s elite defense.

The program is also under internal scrutiny with Belichick’s son Steve Belichick set to resign when his medical leave ends, and GM Michael Lombardi having already stepped down amid the probe.

UNC Signals Confidence in Belichick While Watching for New Allegations

UNC officials said an outside review found isolated misconduct rather than a systemic failure and expressed faith in Bill Belichick’s control of the football program, while promising to investigate any future allegations. The probe led to the resignations of Belichick’s lieutenants and raised questions about drug use and inappropriate relationships. Regulators may still scrutinize the program, but UNC frames this as an internal matter, aiming to reassure donors and regulators and protect Belichick under his high‑stakes contract, as the Tar Heels (2–0) prepare for Clemson and later Notre Dame.
