...Two projected starters for the eighth-ranked Irish (10-2) in their BattleFrog Fiesta Bowl matchup Friday in Glendale, Ariz., with No. 7 Ohio State, have been scratched from the lineup completely.
Junior safety Max Redfield was sent home to Mission Viejo, Calif., for a violation of team rules, per ND head coach Brian Kelly. Presumably, grad senior Matthias Farley would take his place.
Kelly also revealed Tuesday that junior cornerback Devin Butler suffered a broken foot in practice on Monday and is out.
