Matt Roth goes to Miami at #46 overall. Believe it or not, there is a story behind this one as well.

Iowa beat LSU on a last-play touchdown pass in this year's Capital One Bowl. The LSU coach was Nick Saban, now Miami's coach and one of the men who decided to draft Roth. Ok, big deal, right?

Only thing is, just five months ago, in the days leading up to the bowl, Roth was asked by a reporter if he had a message to send to Saban and LSU. No doubt spurred on by the LSU's player and media comments that LSU was more athletic than Iowa and should win the game, Roth had something to say (of course). He raised his arms and said, "I've got two words for LSU."

It must not have bothered Nick Saban too much.
