DOCTOR TEBOW…
…is in.
Screw your “Heisman.” We shall take the prescription of victory, and it will be enough for all of us, Dr. Tebow included. (HT: Caroline, who rules.)

Slightly off subject - but now that I have been able to fully relish the victory - I feel compelled to discuss the officiating.
I can forgive the non-calls (late hit out of bounds, holding, etc.) on the theory that the game should not be controlled/managed by the zebras.
But then…then…we get that idiotic stupid 5-yd. penalty (when the Gators were on the Ala. 1 yd. line) for sideline infraction….(called on Urban). it could have been a game-changer. Instead of a sure-fire TD, the Gators might have been forced to settle for a FG try. That could have changed the whole complexion of the game.
I still can’t believe that call.

Heard that song over and over this season, it really has gotten old. OU won’t put more than 21 up on UF without the benefit of 2+ turnovers.

Please read Mich-Placed Gator’s response to your painfully ignorant post repeatedly throughout the course of the day.
“Saban said he was proud of what his team accomplished this season, but was disappointed in the execution on Saturday and that the loss was more about his team’s errors and not the Gators’ play.”
That’s what I read on-line regarding Saban’s comments, fwiw.

College football is better with guys like Tim Tebow. He is the gold standard when it comes to guys you want leading your team. He is a once-in-a-lifetime person/player. I do think he has a great supporting staff and a lot of weapons around him and I think his throwing mechanics are a little suspect, but both of those things are dwarfed by his heart, leadership, and pure grit. That is one tough dude, mentally, physically, and spiritually.
I think a lot of people hate on Tebow because guys like Danielson just don’t know when to STFU and just watch the guy work. Memo to Danielson and Herby…Tebow doesn’t need you drooling all over him, never asked you do so, and anyone with half a football brain, which isn’t saying much, can see this guy work and doesn’t need him to be compared to Fraizer in order to get it that he’s a great player.
Analyst and broadcasters just need to learn that sometimes it better to just be quiet and enjoy the magic - I think Blackledge does this better than anyone. He says just enough to draw your attention to something, but then lets the scene unfold before you.
There just isn’t a need to drool all over guys like Tebow.

For 103…
Love him or hate him, take a moment to appreciate Tim Tebow.
You may fall into the faction that finds Tim Tebow annoying and saccharin sweet.
How dare he be great at football and be a model citizen? Who does he think he is winning a Heisman as a sophomore and donating his spring break to orphans in the Phillipines?
Let’s face it: He is terrible and boring at interviews. He is always “yes sir” and “no sir” when talking to analyists. He always give credit to God (blah) and his teammates (bleh). He thanks his coaches for their gameplan (ralph) and his linemen for their blocking (wretch). Some have even said that he is a bit of a “wad”.
Where are the arrest records? Where are the pictures of him being anything but a true gentleman?
Where is the drama?
Tebow has done nothing but maintain a 3.7 GPA while leading his team to a SEC title and a National Title game birth.
He already has a Heisman in his back pocket, and he has the balls to go for another? Seriously, who does this guy think he is?
He is Tim Tebow. He has never asked for acolades. He has never asked for praise, only given it to the man upstairs, his teammates and coaches.
Then he lost (technically, the team lost), and he issued a promise to play harder than any player in America.
Since that day he has led his team on an amazing ride. LED his team. The Gators haven’t lost a game since, and have been rolling in their victories. The SEC title against Alabama was the cake, Oklahoma will be the icing.
Last year, Tebow was the first sophomore to ever win the Heisman. He accounted for a boatload of TDs and yards, but failed to win a title.
This year, he may flip that outcome. His numbers are no longer gaudy, but he is leaps and bounds better as a leader of his team. Maybe that is what makes him so special.
He pleads with Urban Meyer to let him be on special teams, he gets in the face of LB Brandon Spikes to fire up the defense, and more than anything, he instills a belief in his teammates that he will NOT fail them.
More important than anything else, he has brought a title back to Gainesville, and has one more on the horizon. Win or lose against Oklahoma, he will probably be back again next year. He is living his childhood dream.
He is living the dream of every college football fan in America. Tebow grew up a Gator fan. He considered Alabama, but his heart wouldn’t let him go there. He had to don the orange and blue.
Do you remember when you were a kid and you used to toss the ball around in the back yard? Who were you tossing TDs for? For me, that pine tree was Neal Anderson. The oak tree was Cris Collinsworth. If I managed to hit the elm, it was a TD to Wes Chandler.
Tebow hit those same trees, along with trees named Reidel Anthony, Ike Hilliard, and Chris Doering.
Remember that kid who took the team’s every loss really, really hard? What if that guy grew into a 240 pound QB with a laser arm but didn’t lose an ounce of passion? That guy would be Tim Tebow.
Now imagine he played for your team.
Still hate him?
He is a once in a lifetime athlete that we should all celebrate, no matter what team you follow.

Meg,
“just OK” has more weapons “on both sides of the ball” than Florida?
hummmm…Cincinnati scores 26, Texas 45 (and beat their ass), Kansas 31, Kansas St 35, Neb 28, Texas A&M 28, and OK St 41.
Excuse me for LMAO at your post and the entire Big 12’s defense-less Defenses.

God, I hate Tebow. Not only because he appears to be a tool, but because the lemmingentsia on ESPN just cannot stop slurping him.
First of all, I’d like to thank my lord and savior, the newborn, 8 lb, swaddling baby Jesus.

Florida fans, I hate to break it to you because I know that you have been living on a wonderful team high, but the SEC is about as down as I have ever seen it this year.
I think it will be YOU who will finally understands what it means to play a great team should you meet OU in the MNC. Sorry, but while UF has many weapons, OU has more on both sides of the ball.

I’d like to get a vote going between which is/was worse.
1. The Tebow = God / Nagurski / greatest player of all time blowjobs that CBS gives us now
or
2. The USC = Perfect / greatest team of all time blowjobs that ESPN gave us in 2004?
