I am no ND fan, but personally I think they get a win against one of the Michigan schools. If not, they could give Purdue a scare, even in Lafayette, as the Boilermakers could be pondering a Week 6 primetime matchup against Ohio State.
At absolute worst, ND grabs their first W on 11/3 against Navy.

nd's defense played much better this past week against psu, they've got no help. are psu and gt top 15 teams? i'd say no. they are abit above average but by no means outstanding teams. psu and gt are rewarded by the pollster because the drilled nd.
IF nd doesn't beat purdue or mich st. they won't win a game until navy and af and don't hold your breath that they can beat either one of them. by that time of the season that nd defense could be so beat up, they won't be able to stop those option attacks.
