Did Florida Gators see the last of Javy on Saturday?

GAINESVILLE -- With so many injuries at defensive line, there's a chance that Gators' defensive tackle Javier Estopinan might make an even bigger contribution this weekend against FSU than he did against The Citadel. Estopinan ran for an unlikely touchdown.

Estopinan hasn't been in UF's defensive line rotation all season but that might change now that the Gators are without defensive tackles Lawrence Marsh and Matt Patchan, who both went down with knee injuries. Raise your hand if you love everything Javier Estopinan represents: Hard work, persistance and Miami. Estopinan is like that old action hero. You know, the grizzly old guy that goes walking into the sunset only to return for the sequel when more bad guys return. Estopinan is Bruce Willis.

If Javy plays one down at DT, then we know we are in big trouble. T. Davis is the best DT on the team. I suspect he will play a lot against FSU, if he can abide by Meyer's "rules". If not, expect to see Antwine. Javy plays, and FSU will run it up our behinds.

Agreed.

Saturday would be an excellent time for Davis' "break out" performance.

I keep hearing that Davis has "issues". I have not heard anything about legal issues, so are they academic or effort related issues?
