Offensive lineman Erik Kuraczea has withdrawn from the university "personal reasons", and is looking to enroll at another school in January, according to Randy Edsall. Mathieu Olivier will start at left guard and be backed up by Tyler Bullock.

Other depth chart changes on the offensive line: Adam Masters will start at right tackle, with Kevin Friend returning to backup status. Stephen Brown goes from backup right tackle to backup left tackle.

At tailback, D.J. Shoemate will backup Jordan Todman, meaning Robbie Frey is out. Blidi Wreh-Wilson is listed as the starter at cornerback, as is Jesse Joseph at defensive end. Also, the 'OR's are gone with the kickers. Chad Christen is backing up both Dave Teggart and Cole Wagner.
