To stay in the rankings they will have to defeat a Notre Dame team that is 4-1. "Our kids are doing a great job of keeping things in perspective," North Carolina coach Butch Davis said. "We're just kind of chipping away, trying to get better every week and trying to play 12 consecutive one-game schedules."

The Irish could be just a win away from entering the rankings. "I think we're on the cusp," head coach Charlie Weis said. "I can't worry about the polls, but you go beat North Carolina at North Carolina, I'd say the odds are you'll be in the Top 25 next week." The Irish have been relying a lot upon quarterback Jimmy Clausen who threw for 347 yards and three touchdowns last week. They would like to be more balanced this week. "If you become a one-dimensional team, eventually you're going to get hurt. Especially when you're ineffective on third-and-1," Weis said. "You have to be able to run the football and you definitely need to be more productive on third-and-1 than we've been."
