Tim Tebow and the Florida Gators completely dominated the Kentucky Wildcats in all facets of the game. The final score was 63-5. While Tim did not have a high number of complete passes, he played like a superstar and helped lead his team to victory.
In the 3+ quarters of football Tim played, he was 11 of 15 for 180 yards with 2 touchdowns and 1 interception. He also rushed the ball 9 times for 48 yards and 2 touchdowns.
One of the best plays of the game came when Tebow hit Demps on a drag pattern across the middle and the freshman simply turned on the jets to make a 61-yard scoring play look easy.
“That was a designed play we had practiced all week long,” said Tim Tebow. “With the coverage they were playing on that play, the guys who are matched up on him are about 6-3 and 240 and they weren’t staying with him too long. When he gets that angle, there aren’t too many people going to catch him.”
This marks the second game in a row where the Gators showed up to play in full force.
“We are absolutely a real team, not just as far as going out there and playing in games, but off the field, in practice and in meetings,” said Tebow. “It’s not just offense or defense or special teams. It’s everybody caring about what the defense does, defense caring about the offense and special teams. Everybody is really taking a lot of pride, not just in themselves and their position groups but the whole team.”
I have to be one of the biggest Tim Tebow fans ever. I love Timmy and all that he does. I’ve memorized his whole bio! And at the Gator Walk before the Hawaii game I touched his hand. I was shaking I was in such shock! As the election is coming up, I can’t help but wonder who Tim is voting for. I’ve done some research and all I’ve found is that he’s a registered Republican, which relieves me. But, that doesn’t necessarily mean that he’s for McCain. I know that he has strong religious views, which means that must influence his candidate choice which would signal Obama, which worries me, because he’s for stopping the war (Obama that is). I was wondering if you or anyone else knew anything more on the matter. When he was interviewed a while ago, he said he didn’t want to say because he didn’t want Gator fans getting mad because he wanted the opposite they did. I thought that was very mature. Sometimes, as we all probably know, it’s very hard to keep our views to ourselves, so it must take a lot from him to do that. Please reply!

well, Tebow is a strong christian and christians are against abortion. Obama is for choice right? so I’m guessing McCain.
I can not speak for Tim but, I would think he would never vote for a candidate that would consider the subject of killing babies “above his pay grade”. I would speculate Tim was for Huckabee ,and would choose McCain as the only candidate that shares most of his values left in the race!
Glad to see the gators put up big numbers on the scoreboard again.And seen Tebow run harder and make more contact than earlier in the season.Man that gets me going a quarterback running over people.This week is the game of the year I said from the get go.They have to play like they did at kentucky, and can’t stop until the last play of the game. Georgia is a very good football team the best on the gators shcedule this season.Tebow must stay focused and keep his teamates and fans pumped.Seems like the team feeds off Tebow’s excitment.Only thing I seen wrong against kentucky is pertecting the football.Tebow must hang on to the ball and can’t throw picks in this game. If they need a perfect game it will be this one.The winner of this game will go to the sec championship more than likely,and maybe the national championship.Tebow remembers last year and I’m sure he doesn’t want to be 0-2 in his hometown. go gators
oh yeah i was there. that was amazing, and cathleen, you have a huge line going there
