Notre Dame offensive tackle Josh Lugg will be unavailable to play in the Fiesta Bowl after injuring his knee last week and undergoing surgery. As a result, true-freshman Blake Fisher is set to start in his place.
Fisher was widely regarded as Notre Dame’s top recruit in the 2021 recruiting class. He became just the second true freshman to start the season opener at an offensive tackle position in September. An injury to his knee in that first half took away the rest of his regular season.
Fisher will join fellow true freshman , left tackle Joe Alt on the starting offensive line unit.
