No major changes of note for Notre Dame. Charles Jagusah remains out at offensive guard as he recovers from his broken arm over the summer, something Notre Dame will have a challenge to again deal with this week against a Texas A&M team that is very physical on both lines of scrimmage.

Also of note, Notre Dame continues to list both Guerby Lambert and Sullivan Absher atop the depth chart at right guard.

Notre Dame and Texas A&M are set to kick off just after 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday night in South Bend, in a game that can been seen on NBC and Peacock.
