Nixon Glad to be Back

Florida OT Xavier Nixon is finally healthy and feeling good about renewed congruity on the offensive line. He knows how important the O-Line is to the success of Florida’s offense and he is glad to re-fill the void he left.

The Tennessee contest was the first game this season where the starting line from spring was returned. On this line, Xavier Nixon is back at left tackle, which shifts Marcus Gilbert to right tackle and Maurice Hurt slides inside to right guard.

Nixon talked about what it’s like to be back in action on the line and how great it is to have the original starters intact. He said he is feeling completely healthy and is 100 percent out on the field. He went on to discuss stopping Kentucky and what he has seen in weapons like Randall Cobb and Derrick Locke.
