Ten Tigers on Athlon Preseason All-SEC Teams

BATON ROUGE – Ten LSU football players were named to the Athlon Sports All-SEC Teams, the publication released Wednesday.

Sophomore cornerback Tre’Davious White earned a nod on the first-team defense, while senior offensive tackle La’el Collins, sophomore cornerback Rashard Robinson and sophomore placekicker Colby Delahoussaye garnered spots on the All-SEC second team.

Junior offensive guard Vadal Alexander was listed on the third-team offense, and five Tigers were named to the fourth-team squad.

True freshman running back Leonard Fournette earned a spot on the fourth-team offense, and junior defensive end Danielle Hunter, sophomore defensive tackle Christian LaCouture and junior linebacker Kwon Alexander were members of the fourth-team defense.

Junior punter Jamie Keehn received fourth-team specialist honors.

LSU returns 17 starters (six on offense, eight on defense and three special teams) from the 2013 squad that finished 10-3, earning a school-record fourth straight season with at least 10 wins.

The Tigers will open the season in primetime when LSU squares off against Wisconsin at 8 p.m. CT on Aug. 30 in NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.
