Ohio State kicker Aaron Pettrey will have surgery Tuesday to repair a torn medial collateral ligament, or MCL, in his right knee and could miss the remainder of the regular season.

Pettrey suffered the injury during a kickoff late in the second quarter of OSU's 45-0 victory over New Mexico State on Saturday.

He is expected to miss four to six weeks, leaving open the possibility of playing in the Buckeyes' bowl game.

Junior Devin Barclay, a 26-year-old walk-on, replaced Pettrey on Saturday and missed two of his three field goal attempts.

Pettrey has made 13 of 19 field goal attempts on the season.
