Overview
- CBS Sports reporter Matt Zenitz reported that Schrauth suffered the injury in the win over USC and is expected to miss three to four weeks.
- Sophomore Sullivan Absher replaced Schrauth at left guard, with the unit already down center Ashton Craig for the season and right guard Charles Jagusah, per ClutchPoints.
- Some coverage describes the issue as a sprained MCL, though Notre Dame has not provided a confirmed diagnosis.
- Schrauth’s absence could affect a rushing attack central to Notre Dame’s resurgence and its College Football Playoff case, as noted by Newsweek.
- Notre Dame enters a bye before visiting Boston College on Nov. 1, and one report points to a possible mid-November return near the Pittsburgh game, with timing uncertain.
