Many labels fit Mississippi State’s Torrey Dale. The defensive lineman is imposing at 6-foot-6 and 277 pounds. As a fifth-year senior, Dale is as just about as experienced as they come.

He’s big. He’s strong. He’s a veteran.

Oh, by the way, he’s a mama’s boy, too.

“My mom has always taken care of me and my two sisters,” Dale said. “She’s the main person in my life and always will be. I’d do anything for her and I don’t have any shame in that.”

Over the course of Dale’s career, he’s been fueled by love for his mother and family.
