Playing time breakdown: Who played at Notre Dame?


by - Staff Writer -

The game video from South Bend will be rough to review for the group of Tigers who saw the field in the 35-14 loss at Notre Dame on Saturday.

Offensively, the Tigers returned to the starting O-line playing all 70 recorded snaps.

Receiver featured some shuffling with Beaux Collins' injury, as freshman Antonio Williams led all in snaps (54) with fellow frosh Adam Randall (23) and veteran EJ Williams (22) seeing increased playing time. Williams and Randall accounted for nine of the 19 targets for wide receivers with six catches for 48 yards.

On defense, the rotation tightened to four defensive ends with Xavier Thomas (foot) out, while there were more mixed in on the interior (six players).

Barrett Carter returned after a one-game absence to lead all linebackers in plays (63), which sent versatile defender Malcolm Greene to special teams-only duty.

In the secondary, Sheridan Jones continues to see the lion's share of snaps (64 Saturday), but freshman Jeadyn Lukus did feature for three snaps. Fred Davis did not travel to Notre Dame and he missed the Syracuse game as well due to injury.
