Spikes one of the scariest defenders around

[O-town Gator]

"The dreadlocks, Fu Manchu-like mustache, menacing stare and muscular 6-foot-3, 258-pound frame make Florida All-American linebacker Brandon Spikes look like a beast.

He plays like one, too.

"I want to have a presence," Spikes said. "The guys tell me, 'You look like a beast.' Even in Pop Warner I was trying to intimidate people.

"I'm not going to say names, but there are times after a few snaps I've looked at [opponents'] faces and could see a look like, 'I got to go against this guy all day?' I've hit [running] backs and the look in their eyes tells me they felt me on that play."

Spikes' blend of ability, attitude and appearance gives him a triple shot of intimidation and combines to make him the scariest player in college football."
