For the first time since late August, Notre Dame football is set to leave the state of Indiana. The Irish will take on Georgia Tech at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

Here’s how Notre Dame will line up against the Yellow Jackets, according to the team’s official depth chart.

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.)

Wide receiver (slot)

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

Tight end

  1. Mitchell Evans (Sr.)
  2. Cooper Flanagan (So.) OR
  3. Eli Raridon (Jr.)

Left tackle

  1. Anthonie Knapp (Fr.)
  2. Tosh Baker (Gr.)

Left guard

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

Center

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

Right guard

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

Junior Billy Schrauth (ankle) is questionable and would start here if he plays. Whether Spindler or Pendleton heads to the bench if that happens is to be determined. Pendleton won the left guard job over Spindler in fall camp, but Spindler has graded better (via Pro Football Focus) since his return to the lineup.

Specialists (starters only)

Place kicker: Mitch Jeter (Gr.)

Kickoff specialist: Mitch Jeter (Gr.)

Punter: James Rendell (Gr.)

Holder: Chris Salerno (Sr.)

Long snapper (punts): Andrew Kros (So.)

Short snapper (field goals): Rino Monteforte (Jr.)

Kickoff returner: Jayden Harrison (Gr.) OR Jeremiyah Love (So.) OR Jadarian Price (Jr.)

Punt returner: Max Hurleman (Gr.) OR Jordan Faison (So.) OR Jaden Greathouse (So.)

Notre Dame updated its depth chart to reflect Hurleman’s status as a starting punt returner.

Also, Jeter (right hip) is questionable. Junior Zac Yoakam handled field goals with Jeter out for most of Week 7, and graduate student Eric Goins — a 30-year-old Army veteran who kicked at The Citadel a decade ago — handled kickoffs.
