Florida State defensive tackle Darnell Dockett was suspended for the Sugar Bowl, the latest in a string of Seminoles punished this season.<br> <br> Coach Bobby Bowden said, ``He broke one of our rules and is suspended for this ballgame. He will not make the trip.&#39;&#39;<br> <br> Bowden wouldn&#39;t elaborate, but Dockett&#39;s lawyer, Stephen Dobson, told the Tallahassee Democrat that police are investigating something that happened at a store in Tallahassee&#39;s Governor&#39;s Square mall.<br> <br> Florida State already was without its top two quarterbacks for the Sugar Bowl against Georgia. Chris Rix was suspended for missing a final exam, while Adrian McPherson was kicked off the team after being accused of stealing a check and is now being looked at in a gambling investigation.<br> <br> Dockett started all 13 games for Florida State and led the defensive line in tackles with 58. He will be replaced by senior Tony Benford in the Sugar Bowl.
