Notre Dame is back to work and trying to put the pieces back together following a brutal home loss to Northern Illinois on Saturday.

The loss knocks Notre Dame from drivers seat to the College Football Playoff to the likely outside looking in just days later.

The first chance to take a step in improvement comes Saturday as Notre Dame returns to the field for their second of just three true road games this season as it travels to Purdue.

It's the first trip to West Lafayette for Notre Dame since 2013 as the Irish take on a former annual rival.

A couple of injury-related slight changes have been made from last week while the big one at quarterback stays the same. See all of it below.
