LSU will be without DT Ricky Jean-Francois vs. Gators
LSU DT Ricky Jean-Francois, who was quoted earlier this week as saying if he got a shot, he wanted to take Florida QB Tim Tebow out, is injured and did not make the trip to Gainesville, according to Glenn Gilbeau of Gannett News Service.
Jean-Francois injured his groin and hip in the Tigers' last game on Sept. 27 against Mississippi State and was held out of practice during the open date last week. He returned to practice this week, but it was determined that he would not be able to play, according to a story on the USA Today website.
Here's the story.

Even if he's hurt, why not at least show up? Aside from a strained groin, does he have a strained jaw from yapping it so much? Florida 51, LSU 21. No more words needed.

Good question Rob. Was he really injured or was he being disciplined by the coaching staff and was left at home as punishment for running his mouth? We may never know.
