Devin White is having himself a sophomore season to remember — one against which any other LSU linebacker season can be compared. With a bowl game remaining, the Tigers linebacker has tallied 127 tackles this season. That mark is good for the sixth-best single season in LSU history. With just 4 tackles in the bowl game, White will pass Kevin Minter for fourth on the list. With 17 tackles — which would be a career high for White — he could climb as high as third. LSU history aside, White is blowing past his peers in 2017. Just this week, White became the first player to be named SEC Defensive Player of the Week four times in the same season. White amassed 55 tackles in those four games. Other than White, LSU has only two defenders who have made 55 total tackles this season. It probably goes without saying, but White leads the SEC in tackles.


asking for a baw.

Roquan Smith led the SEC with 137 tackles in 2017, but White was right on his tail, recording 133 as a sophomore. Making White’s mark even more impressive was the fact that White’s 133 tackles came in 13 games, while Smith played in 15. Smith is off to the NFL, where he’ll almost certainly be an early first-round pick. White will be in that position soon enough, perhaps as soon as next year, but for now, he’s back to lead the LSU defense. In an era where tackling is often inconsistent, White is the surest tackler in the SEC,

Not saying he isn't good a player

Apparently a team doesn't have to stop him to beat y'all, so seems like a moot point.

Hell of a ball player though

Any chance he gets on that Arden Key offseason diet program the training staff had worked up?

He is great but I like our OL against any front in CFB. He will get his but he is one man.

Better question: How many more tackles per game does he need in order to finish higher than 3rd in the West?

I don't think LSU's defense has been the problem over the past decade.

Can't stop Devin White - he's a beast - but opponents shouldn't have to worry too much regardless. This is his pre-draft year so he will take it easy this year culminating with sitting out the Citrus Bowl per the LSU norm.

We're gonna let him hit our quarterback until he gets tired.
