    Florida after tebow....

    When you come to Gainesville for a game in 2010, you will head down the Tim Tebow Expressway (formerly I-75) and take the Tebow Turnoff (speed limit 15 mph) onto route 15 (formerly Hwy 26) go east on Sainthood Drive, until you reach Tebow Left or Tebow Right, either of which will take you to the Tebow Blue and Tebow Orange parking lots, where you will pay $15 and take the Tebow Trail walking path to Tim's Swamp, Home of the Fighting Tebows.

    Other than that, things should stay the same.

    with the cupcake schedule they have this season you can bet that their backup will get plenty of playing time. What is going to happen if Tim "Neo" Tebow gets injured?

    UF fans are still waiting to hear the extent of Tebow's current injury. I heard he missed all practices last week with an undisclosed back injury. Could be a nagging season long injury.

    All the time he'll spend lying on it this year won't help either.

    I imagine that Urban will have a year of a "growing pains" without Tebow. It's an amazing thing when the go-to guy on your team is the QB, especially a guy like Tebow, for 3 straight years. 90% of the team next will have played their entire college career with Tebow. I was a doubter for his freshman year, and a bit of his sophomore year, but damn, the guy really makes an impact on the field.

    But back to the point, after having a very consistent offense for several years, one slip-up offensively can really wreak havoc on a defense mentally. Look at LSU's defense last year. Amidst all of the co-DC stuff, the defense saw the field to start each either tied or already losing (see Georgia). The offense was never reliable enough to drive down the field and give the defense a cushion with some points (the exceptions were @Auburn and @USC... and the crap games).

    Wow. I hadn't heard that. If Tebow is out or not himself this year, I think that changes the picture in the SEC and the BCS considerably. We'll have to see how that pans out. But if he misses (or isn't 100%) for the LSU and UGA games, the Gators go from overwhelming favorites to tentative front-runners in my book.
