James Laurinaitis and the Buckeye Defense will be the difference


With all of the talk about Florida's speed on both side of the ball and the main focus on Ohio State's Offense, the difference maker, one James Laurinaitis seems to get over-looked. Laurinaitis (nicknamed "the animal" because his dad was a professional wrestler) is a 6'3, 244-pound wrecking machine.
Florida's back-up/part-time QB, Tim Tebow, is evenly matched for size with Laurinaitis. The signature move on film for the running QB Tebow is the iso up the middle. Unfortunately for the Gators, that lane will be clogged with the animal instincts of James Laurinaitis, who has 100 tackles (team high), 5-intereceptions and 3 forced fumbles, will definitely make the freshman Tebow, Florida RB Percy Harvin and Chris Leak have a bad trip in Arizona.
Go Bucks!
