USC Injury Report: Trojans' availability against Notre Dame
The Big Ten Availability is out ahead of the USC Trojans against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and we’re looking at the Trojans’ injury report and what it means for this game.
USC Availability Report
OUT
DE Solomon Tuliaupupu
OT Micah Banuelos
Questionable
OT Elijah Paige
OC Jonah Monheim
DT Jide Abasiri
Well, we’re going to see about that USC offensive line during warmups. Not having either starting left tackle Elijah Paige or center Jonah Monheim for this game would be disastrous for the Trojans’ offense. Monheim has played through injuries for much of the year and got dinged late in the game against UCLA. It would be pretty shocking if he didn’t suit up, start and play this entire game.
If Monheim can’t go, USC would turn to Kilian O’Connor to step in. If Paige isn’t able to play, the Trojans could work some combination of Tobias Raymond and starting right tackle Mason Murphy at the two edge spots.
Abasiri is listed as questionable but took part in early warmups for the Trojans with the defensive line.

Defensive end Solomon Tuliaupupu remains out for the second week in a row. He played the second-most snaps of his season against Nebraska, but missed both the UCLA game and now this game against Notre Dame.
Redshirt freshman tackle Micah Banuelos has been out most of the season due to injury. He played 21 snaps at left tackle against Utah State but hasn’t been available for any game since then.
