SEC announces the status of Mizzou’s Harris, LSU’s Dodd following ejections
Published:
Mizzou DE Charles Harris and LSU OL Andy Dodd suffered ejections last week during the contest between both teams in Baton Rouge. This would in theory keep each player from participating in the following week.
However, the SEC announced that Dodd and Harris will indeed be able to play in their respective games this upcoming weekend.
SEC confirms to Missouri that Charles Harris & LSU's Andy Dodd, both ejected Saturday, are clear to play the entire game in their next games

Harris is Missouri’s best pass rusher, bar none. The explosive end has accrued 3.5 sacks and 4.5 tackles for loss through the first five games of the season. He leads the Tigers in both categories.
While Dodd isn’t traditionally a starter for LSU along its offensive line, his availability will be massive against Florida on Saturday.
As mentioned by interim head coach Ed Orgeron earlier Monday, starting offensive linemen Toby Weathersby and William Clapp will be out with injuries. Dodd may be thrust into a starting role as a result. At the very worst, he’ll provide LSU with a quality backup.
