Following its cathartic 66-7 win over Purdue, Notre Dame must refocus and turn its attention to Miami (Ohio). The Irish host the RedHawks at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend.

Here’s how the Irish will line up in Week 4, with significant changes from last week’s depth chart due to three significant injuries.

Quarterback

  1. Riley Leonard (Sr.)
  2. Steve Angeli (Jr.)

Running back

  1. Jeremiyah Love (So.) OR
  2. Jadarian Price (Jr.)
  3. Aneyas Williams (Fr.)
  4. Devyn Ford (Gr.)

Wide receiver (boundary)

  1. Beaux Collins (Sr.) OR
  2. Jayden Thomas (Sr.)

Wide receiver (field)

  1. Jordan Faison (So.) OR
  2. Kris Mitchell (Gr.) OR
  3. KK Smith (So.)

Faison (ankle) is back on the depth chart, listed as a co-starter with Mitchell and Smith. He dressed for Saturday’s game at Purdue, but he did not play.

Wide receiver (slot)

  1. Jaden Greathouse (So.) OR
  2. Jayden Harrison (Gr.)

Tight end

  1. Mitchell Evans (Sr.)
  2. Cooper Flanagan (So.) OR

Left tackle

  1. Anthonie Knapp (Fr.)

Baker (shoulder) missed the past two games, but he’s back on the depth chart this week.

Left guard

  1. Sam Pendleton (So.)
  2. Sullivan Absher (So.)

With Baker back, Absher slid back inside to guard.

Center

  1. Pat Coogan (Sr.)
  2. Sam Pendleton (So.)
  3. Joe Otting (So.)

With starting center Ashton Craig suffering a season-ending knee injury, Coogan will make his return to the starting lineup. Pendleton being listed here indicates that if Coogan were to go down, he would kick inside to center and Absher would replace him at left guard.

Right guard

  1. Rocco Spindler (Sr.)
  2. Chris Terek (So.)

Starting right guard Billy Schrauth suffered an ankle injury, which could keep him out multiple weeks. Spindler will return to the starting lineup

  2. Guerby Lambert (Fr.)

Vyper

  1. Boubacar Traore (So.)
