Breiden Fehoko isn't going to be the 350-pound nose tackle clogging up several blockers so others can make plays. He's 50- to 60-pounds lighter than the guys he's competing with for that spot.
He's not small. He's just not Ed Alexander or Tyler Shelvin big, and LSU is hoping that creates a mismatch on the line of scrimmage.
Star linebacker Devin White lines up right behind Fehoko in practice now that the Texas Tech transfer has moved from left end to nose tackle, and White likes what he's seeing.
"He's super athletic as a nose tackle," White said.
