Notre Dame releases the depth chart for Penn State.

Notre Dame has already released the updated depth chart for when the Irish take on the Penn State Nittany Lions in the College Football Playoff semifinal at the Orange Bowl in Miami next week.

What jumps out immediately is that running back Jeremiyah Love is listed atop the RB slot, suggesting that he is likely to play despite getting banged up in the 23-10 win over Georgia.

Rocco Spindler sits atop the right guard spot, so he should be back in action after dealing with a right ankle injury.

On the defensive side of the ball, Xavier Watts is atop the safety spot. He left the field briefly against Georgia but appears to be OK. Meanwhile, linebacker Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa is back on the depth chart as a reserve. Junior Tuihalamaka continues to back up Joshua Burnham at the Vyper pass-rusher position.
