MONTREAL -- A stretch of road in front of the stadium where he began his Hall of Fame career has been renamed in honour of former Montreal Expos catcher Gary Carter. Signs indicating Rue Gary-Carter were already in place on Tuesday as municipal officials announced the renaming of Faillon Street West after the most popular player in the history of the defunct National League baseball club. "It was here at Jarry Park that the player affectionately known as Kid began his major league career," said Laurent Blanchard, chairman of the citys executive committee, told a small gathering of officials and fans, some wearing caps and shorts with the Expos red, white and blue logo. "He was an idol who touched the heart of Montrealers and inspired many young athletes." A larger celebration is planned for June 15 when Ahuntsic baseball park in the citys north end will be named for Carter, who died on Feb. 16, 2012 of brain cancer at 57. Carters wife, Sandy, and other family members were not able to attend the street renaming because they only learned of it this week, but they are expected to be at the ball park ceremony. The western section of Faillon street runs in front of the stadium the Expos called home for the first eight years of their existence from 1969 to 1976, before moving to the domed Olympic Stadium. Jarry Park stadium has since been converted into Uniprix Stadium, a tennis facility that forms part of the Jarry national tennis training centre. Carter made his Expos debut there in September, 1974. He grew into perhaps the best catcher of his generation. The 11-time all-star played in Montreal until 1984, then played for the New York Mets, San Francisco Giants and Los Angeles Dodgers before returning to Montreal to end his playing career in 1992. He was always a fan favourite for his easy smile, outgoing personality and the effort he put into learning some French. The eastern part of the street will retain the name Faillon.

With the calendar turning to November, Florida is in position to win the Southeastern Conferences East Division for a second consecutive season.But first, the Gators (6-1, 4-1 SEC) must survive a stretch of tough road games, beginning Saturday at Arkansas. The Gators and Razorbacks (5-3, 1-3) meet at 3:30 p.m. ET (CBS) at Donald W. Reynolds-Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville.Florida was ranked 11th on Tuesday in the first College Football Playoff standings. Arkansas did not make the Top 25.Though the Razorbacks havent beaten the Gators since joining the SEC in 1992, Florida coach Jim McElwain says Arkansas has established a physical identity under fourth-year coach Bret Bielema.Brets done an outstanding job with that program, and what theyve done as a program in November, take a look at that, McElwain said. They have finished and really closed every year that hes been there.For our guys going into that environment, Im looking forward to it. Im looking forward to our guys experiencing that. Thats what playing at a place like Florida is all about, for those opportunities to go in and match yourself in an uncomfortable place.Florida will enter the matchup with confidence after posting a 24-10 win over rival Georgia in Jacksonville. That win, combined with Tennessees loss to South Carolina, puts Florida two games up on the Vols and a half-game up on Kentucky in the SEC East.The Gators can clinch the SEC East title with two wins in their last three conference games, which includes a home game against South Carolina on Nov. 12 and a road game at LSU on Nov. 19.We have to win out, Florida quarterback Luke Del Rio said. Its not like we have any breathing room.Arkansas is coming off a bye after a 56-3 loss at Auburn on Oct. 22. However, the Razorbacks have proven capable of rising to the occasion against quality opponents, posting a 41-38 overtime win at TCU on Sept. 10.Everybody points to what happened in the Auburn game, McElwain said. I think that was an anomaly a little bit. It got out of hand ... and took them out of their normal game. But I will say this, theyre physical.dddddddddddd.They understand what they want to do and how to do it. Theyve very sound on both sides of the football, and for us, we have to be right.Del Rio was not overwhelming against Georgia, but he did what he did to do to win. He finished the game completing 15 of 25 passes for 131 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He was sacked three times. For the season, Del Rio has thrown for 1,128 yards with eight TDs and six interceptions.Wide receiver Antonio Callaway amassed only 42 yards on four receptions but scored on a 4-yard rush to become the first Gator to score in five different ways -- with a rushing touchdown, a receiving touchdown, a punt return for a touchdown , kickoff return for a touchdown and a pass for a touchdown. For the season, Callaway has a team-high 441 receiving yards on 27 catches.Arkansas is coming off a bye week that came at a good time. Quarterback Austin Allen should be able to play despite injuring his right knee against Auburn. Though he spent much of the bye week on the sideline, Allen was back in practice by Sunday.Others have benefited from the break as well. Tight end Jeremy Sprinkle didnt practice during the bye week to rest his injured ankle, and he should be much improved for the break.Offensive guard Jake Raulerson also got a week off to rest his ankle and should be fine for Florida. Defensive end Deatrich Wise has a hand and shoulder injury but expects to play.However, Arkansas right tackle Brian Wallace remains questionable. If he cant go, the likely replacement would be redshirt freshman Colton Jackson, who has struggled this season.The contest is big for Arkansas for bowl positioning. The schedule doesnt get any easier, with a home game against No. 15 LSU and road trips to Mississippi State on the horizon. This week could mean the difference between weighing attractive postseason destinations or simply hoping to qualify to play anywhere at all. ' ' '
