Curious.

Shouldn't the NT be lined up on the right side over the left guard/Center and the other tackle lined up in the B-gap on the left on the outside shoulder of the right guard?

I have no idea if this has been brought up, or even WHERE to bring it up.

Edit : I goofed the title. Sorry. I meant left side.

Yeah, The DT on the weak side is usually the run stuffer and depending on Gap responsibility will be classified as a NT for 2-Gap or a DT for Single gap in a traditional 4-3.

It looks like Bort placed the NT, where the NT would be in a 3-4(kinda) He should be lined up face up with the center but has responsibility to the strong side guard. So maybe that is why the NT is lined up in the 1-technique on the strong side even in the 4-3 defense.
