Report: LSU suspends Wing for bowl game

LSU punter Brad Wing has been suspended for the Chick-fil-A Bowl matchup with Clemson on New Year's Eve for an undisclosed reason, according to a New Orleans Times-Picayune report, citing a source close to the situation.

Wing also missed the Tigers' season opener with a foot injury. The school hasn't confirm the Australian's status for the bowl game to the paper, and head coach Les Miles isn't scheduled to speak with the media again until Friday.

Should Wing miss the game, the Tigers would be missing the punter who ranks 12th in the country with an average of 44.8 yards per punt. He'll be replaced by fellow Aussie Jaime Keehn, who punted in the opener and averaged 41 yards on his three punts.
