Gators held him to 2 tackles last 2 years

University of Kentucky linebacker Danny Trevathan tries to downplay the streak of games in which he has made 10 or more tackles. When asked how he'd react if he had "only" nine tackles in a game, he said in a deadpan voice, "I probably wouldn't notice till after the game because someone would tell me."3
But when asked about the last time he failed to record 10 or more tackles, Trevathan did not need his memory jogged. Perhaps tellingly, and with a hint of irritation in his voice, he answered immediately.
"Florida," he said.
Correct. Trevathan had only two tackles against the Gators last season. Since then, he's reached double digits in 12 straight going into Saturday's game against Florida.
"I had an incident and I sat out the first half," Trevathan said in explaining the two-tackle blip against Florida last season. "Kind of a rookie mistake, a young guy mistake."
In a firm voice, he said he would not be making any mistakes this week.
