Following a bye week next weekend, the UNC football team will host No. 2 Notre Dame on Friday, Nov. 27–with the ACC revealing Thursday that the start time for that contest is 3:30 p.m.

This will be the 21st meeting all-time between the two programs and fourth since 2006.

Notre Dame officially has an 18-1 record in those games because UNC was forced to vacate its 2008 victory over the Fighting Irish–meaning the Tar Heels’ last win on record against Notre Dame came in 1960.

The Fighting Irish are currently 7-0 as the last unbeaten team in the ACC this season, while the Tar Heels are 5-2.
