The win at Boston College will come at a price, as this morning Tim Prister of Irish Illustrated is reporting that center Jarrett Patterson will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a foot injury.
Tough break for perhaps the nation’s best OL.https://t.co/30d0b0hO1b

It seems like redshirt freshman Zeke Correll could be next in line as Pete Sampson suggests, but either way whoever replaces Patterson will have big shoes to fill.
Notre Dame center Jarrett Patterson suffered a foot injury at Boston College that's expected to shelve him for the season, according to a source. Red-shirt freshman Zeke Correll likely to be next man in at North Carolina. Tim Prister at Irish Illustrated first to report.

If there is a silver lining coming out of this is the fact that the Irish will have two weeks to work the next man up into the starting lineup. The offensive line has performed at an extremely high level this year, so we’ll see how they deal with some adversity within the position group.
