Florida State Seminoles linebacker Matthew Thomas was ejected from a game against the Miami Hurricanes for a pretty nasty hit on Miami quarterback Brad Kaaya. It turns out Thomas left Kaaya with more than just a serious headache from the hit.

The linebacker played the role of tooth fairy, too.
And from the WQAM radio broadcast, Brad Kaaya lost part of a tooth after that Thomas hit. And then a pick in the end zone for the QB.

That's how you know you're hitting pretty damn hard. Thomas needed that kind of hard hitting for the second half of FSU's game against Wake Forest since he was suspended for the first half of it for this obvious targeting call.
