Quarterback Matt Flynn and defensive tackle Marlon Favorite played on the 2007 squad, while Skyler Green was a wide receiver and kick returner for the 2003 team.
It’s not the first time this season former players have talked to the team. Interim coach Ed Orgeron has made a point of getting ex-Tigers more involved with the program, from having them join the team on its game-day walk down Victory Hill to sending care packages to alums currently on NFL rosters.
No. 19 LSU is off this Saturday before hosting No. 1 Alabama on Nov. 5 in a game that will surely determine if the Tigers can maintain their sliver of hope to make the College Football Playoff.
