LSU Fans Start #FreeDevinWhite Campaign, Raise $6,000 for Billboards Ahead of Game vs. Alabama

LSU fans are taking action following junior linebacker Devin White's suspension by raising more than $6,000 for #FreeDevinWhite billboards to be placed near the SEC's headquarters in Birmingham, Alabama.

White was ejected during No. 4 LSU's 19-3 win against Mississippi State last week after being flagged for targeting his hit on quarterback Nick Fitzgerald. The call drew ire from many inside Tiger Stadium and the outrage carried over to Twitter during the game.

White is facing a half-game suspension when the team hosts No. 1 Alabama this week. SEC officials said there is no appeals process and therefore the decision would not be overturned.
