A special visitor will be in attendance at Kenan Stadium on Friday for the showdown between No. 19 UNC and No. 2 Notre Dame.

The AFCA Coaches’ Trophy — with the famous Waterford Crystal football on top — will be on display during the game, as Notre Dame looks to continue its undefeated season and pursuit of the national championship.

With the game scheduled to be televised on ABC with the sport’s top announcing duo of Kirk Herbstreit and Chris Fowler calling the action, it’s likely the trophy will make its way into the broadcast a few times.

Fans attending the game will also be able to take a free, socially distanced, picture with the trophy as they head inside the stadium.
