Notre Dame updates depth chart for Ohio State showdown

It’ll be one of the biggest games in college football all season long when Notre Dame plays hosts to Ohio State on Saturday night in South Bend.  Despite being only a few hours drive away from one another, the two hadn’t met in the regular season before last year’s opener in Columbus in nearly 30 years.

And with the ever changing college football landscape, who knows when they’ll meet again.

Notre Dame enters the game 4-0 while Ohio State is perfect at 3-0 as well.  With a few players coming off injuries, here is how Notre Dame’s depth chart looks as it was released on Monday of game week.
