Back in 2012, Brian Kelly's Notre Dame team ran the table during the regular season to set up a showdown with Alabama for the national title. Along the way the Fighting Irish had to survive some close games, including overtime victories at home against Stanford and Pittsburgh (a triple OT affair). Now Kelly's Irish are 6-0 and ranked No. 5 and look who is waiting them this week -- the Panthers. (AP Photo/Keith Srakocic, File)
