Growing up in the same area of New Orleans, LSU junior LB Donnie Alexander and Texas A&M junior WR/KR Speedy Noil both went to Edna Karr High School.
On Thursday night, the former teammates will meet up as LSU travels to take on Texas A&M for a Thanksgiving rivalry matchup.
On Monday, Alexander said he wouldn’t be taking it easy on Noil when they step between the lines:

Alexander is going to have his work cut out for him if he wants to catch Noil, though. After all, his name isn’t “Slowy.”
Watch the Aggies take on the Tigers in College Station on Thursday night at 6:30 p.m. Central time. The game can be seen on ESPN.
