Notre Dame's dominating win over Purdue on Saturday didn't come without significant cost. En-route to beating the Boilermakers 66-7, Notre Dame lost a pair of offensive linemen and a defensive lineman to significant injuries in the first half.

Right guard Billy Schrauth and center Ashton Craig were injured while Jordan Botelho from Notre Dame's defensive front was carted off.

As a result, Notre Dame had to make significant changes to its depth chart that was released for Miami University week on Monday.
