Brandon Spikes Named SEC Defensive Player of the Week
After a subpar game at Arkansas two weeks ago, junior LB Brandon Spikes rebounded with a performance that was so good Saturday night against LSU that it earned him SEC Defensive Player of the Week honors.
In Florida's 51-21 win over LSU, Spikes had five tackles and a career-high two interceptions, including one he returned 52 yards for a touchdown to put the game out of reach for the Tigers.
He is one of just six linebackers in the nation to have two interceptions in a game this season. Spikes is Florida's leading tackler with 46.
