Link: No. 18 Florida Gators lose starting LBs Jelani Jenkins, Ronald Powell - ESPN Jenkins has five tackles on the season, and was the Gator's third leading tackler in '10. Powell lead the Gators with six (6) sacks last season.
Powell hasn't played all season, so that's not a huge deal. Jenkins, however, is a fantastic LB that is the brains of that D.
The good news is that the way this is shaping up leaves Dooley with two clear routes. Win and buy yourself some time. Or, lose and have no excuses.
This is where Da'Rick would have come in really handy over the middle while 11 & 84 stretched the coverage down the field. The TE/FB/RBs should be able to handle it though
i will say one thing. If we still had #21, I would not be thingking twice about picking Tennessee to win. I think we would win this game quite handily if he were still in Knoxville.
As I understand the situation, had D. Rogers acted like a normal human being and played it cool (manned up), he would have been back for this game.
Noticed that as well and will not be surprised if they pull that stunt come Saturday. [itch bay] move, but what are you going to do?
