Maea Teuhema

A five-star recruit from Keller, Texas, Teuhema immediately made his impact felt on the LSU offensive line, playing in all 11 games and starting at left guard the final 10 for the Tigers.

Teuhema (No. 75 pictured above) was named a freshman All-American for his efforts as part of an offense that ranked No. 9 nationally in rushing yards per game (245.9).

During his freshman campaign, Teuhema racked up 61 knockdown blocks on 642 offensive snaps, including season highs of nine against Eastern Michigan and Ole Miss.

All eyes will be on this rising sophomore, who figures to once again be a staple on the o-line, as he and his brethren open up massive holes for LSU junior running back Leonard Fournette to gallop through (and hopefully protect quarterback Brandon Harris and the *fingers crossed* much improved passing attack).

Next: No. 3 Derrius Guice
