57th in tackling as a linebacker??? For the defensive player of the year?? bullshite.

Minter is 20th, btw.


I don't even think this is the stat that really matters. If you want to get the really telling stat, start going through the number of missed tackles per game.

Thus, I bring you exhibit A:



And Exhibit B:




Now, in his defense for Exhibit B, he is at a disadvantage because his eyes are on the side of his head.

Another question we must ask ourselves, how well does he take on a lineman? The right guard makes him eat shite in Exhibit C:

Good grief man. So Te'o got pushed back and pancaked on 1 play? You don't think that ever happened to Minter? Plus, that clip must be from 2 years ago since they played Michigan at night this year.

Look, I love Minter and am biased towards LSU guys. But he's not the next Ray Lewis. He's not as fast. He gets washed out of plays and gets caught in traffic a good bit too. He's not spectacular in coverage either.

Te'o and Minter are pretty good LBs, and will both play in the NFL. Neither will be great NFL players in my opinion.
