Notre Dame has a way of removing much of the doubt from games that theoretically are not decided and could go either way.

Friday, Notre Dame kept No. 19 North Carolina in a stronghold to make a game with a one-score margin until the final minutes feel like a convincing victory. Allowing 58 yards on 25 plays in the second half while executing two touchdown marches of at least 89 yards will do that.

Here are some more thoughts, numbers and musings from the 31-17 win after a second viewing.
