ND lost their 1st-string LT before the season started. He’s healthy now and will move back to LT after having played RG vs PSU. He is very good and will be able to hold his own.
This is not the same situation where UCLA was down to its 4th string LT vs USC and had to play a walk-on who had never played HS football. Had Prongos played, UCLA would have won that game fairly easily.
If both teams play well then Ohio State wins. But if OSU does not play well and ND does, then expect an upset. If OSU can lose at home to Michigan they can lose to ND on a neutral field.
A B effort by Ohio State beats an A effort by Notre Dame. It will take a total collapse of the Buckeyes to lose this game. The Buckeyes will not come into this game flat.

A dog water Trojan team put 35, 600 total yds and 200 on the ground vs ND.
Ohio St has too many weapons for ND, esp when their best DT is out
