Notre Dame Football: Starting right guard Tommy Kraemer out for North Carolina after surgery

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have the best offensive line in college football and lost center Jarrett Patterson last week to a season-ending foot injury (lisfranc). Now, less than a week away from traveling to Chapel Hill to take on the North Carolina Tar Heels, Notre Dame will be without starting right guard Tommy Kraemer.

According to a report by Tim Prister over at Irish Illustrated, Kraemer underwent surgery on Friday night for an appendectomy and will be out 1-3 weeks.

With Patterson out, there was supposed to be a battle for the center job between Josh Lugg and Zeke Correll.
