Notre Dame gets key Wisconsin injury info before Sunday’s game
The No. 4 Notre Dame Fighting Irish are set to kickoff their season against Wisconsin on Sunday at Lambeau Field.
The Irish want to leave no doubt in the minds of the College Football Playoff selection committee this year after being left out of the tournament in 2025.
For Wisconsin, head coach Luke Fickell appears to be closer to the hot seat than not after going 4-8 last season.
Hours before kickoff, Notre Dame received some key injury intel on Wisconsin before the matchup.
Per ESPN’s Pete Thamel, right tackle Kevin Heywood is expected to play for the Irish after missing most of training camp with a lower body injury. Emerson Mandell is expected to be a miss for the Badgers due to a foot injury.
“Sources: Wisconsin starting right tackle Kevin Heywood (lower body) is expected to play against No. 4 Notre Dame on Sunday, as his status had been uncertain heading into the game,” Thamel posted on X. “Right guard Emerson Mandell (foot) is not expected to play for the Badgers.
“Both missed significant time during camp and their availability was in flux. Heywood, who is 6-9 and 320 pounds, got hurt the second day of camp and wore a walking boot for a stretch. He missed all of 2025 with an injury. Mandell started 12 games last year for the Badgers.”
Notre Dame should have an advantage over Wisconsin
The Irish should have a clear advantage in the trenches for this game. Notre Dame is expected to start Bryce Young, Jason Onye, Armel Mum, and Boubacar Traore on the defensive line.
The secondary for the Irish is expected to be one of the best and deepest in the country with cornerbacks Leonard Moore, DJ McKinney, and Christian Gray.
Wisconsin’s offense will look noticeably different with five transfers expected to start on Sunday. The Badgers will be led by Old Dominion quarterback transfer Colton Joseph.
