Notre Dame has released its depth chart for the matchup against the Bulldogs.
*** Right guard Rocco Spindler was injured in the second quarter of the 27-17 win over Indiana. Spindler is still listed as the starter on the depth chart but head coach Marcus Freeman stated he is questionable for the game. Spindler was replaced by Sam Pendleton during that game. Pendleton started the first seven games of the season at right guard.
*** The rest of the depth chart on offense remains the same as it was last week.
*** Notre Dame will be without standout defensive tackle and team captain Rylie Mills, who is out for the season after suffering a knee injury against Indiana. Mills is replaced in the starting lineup by Gabriel Rubio, who has been a key rotation player all season. With Mills out, sophomore Armel Mukam also moves into the two deep.
*** Freeman noted that talented freshman linebacker Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa is questionable for the game after suffering a knee injury against Army. He is not listed on the two-deep for this game.
*** There are no changes to the depth chart on special teams.
