Fourth-ranked Notre Dame announced that linebacker Drayk Bowen will miss the highly anticipated matchup against top-ranked Miami. The Fighting Irish confirmed Bowen's absence ahead of the showdown, leaving a significant gap in their defense for the marquee game.
The contest between the two unbeaten powerhouses is set to be one of the season's biggest college football games. Notre Dame will need to adjust its defensive scheme without Bowen, who has been a key contributor this season.
