TM7 did nothing against Alabama in the game last year.....why would that matter?

LSU had a chance to stay close to Bama in TS with the overrated Mathieu in purple & gold.

Now, it'll almost be like goin' to Oxford in November. The excitement is gone for the Red Stickers.

That's what I was thinking also. If anything, his dismissal makes the LSU secondary better. It'll be harder to replace him in the return game, but LSU has plenty of good athletes capable of doing damage there.

Against teams that knew how to gameplan against him, he was worthless. A 5'9" cornerback simply can't cover a 6'4" wide receiver.

And if teams were smart enough to not punt to him, he made no effect on special teams. Now, there were always those kinds of teams that would punt to him (cough cough, UGA and Arky).


With that said, that secondary was already losing a lot of experience, and it's definitely going to hurt to not have somebody back there that already knows Chavis' defense.
