  "account": "Recent College Football Playoff projections from On3 feature the Notre Dame Fighting Irish as the fifth seed. Andy Staples of On3 highlights the Irish's potential as a top-5 team after their Week 4 victory over Purdue. Staples pointed out that Notre Dame ran the ball effectively in the game, averaging more than five yards per carry against a power conference opponent, which is a significant achievement. The Fighting Irish will face the North Carolina Tar Heels in their next game. The winner of that matchup will then play No. 4 Indiana in the Rose Bowl.",
