Tebow returning next season

January 12th, 2009, 12:05 am by Josh Weinfuss

Florida’s All-Everything quarterback Tim Tebow had one last thing to say before he walked off the stage during the celebration honoring the Gators’ second national championship in three seasons at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

“Oh, by the way, let’s do it again,” Tebow said. “I’m coming back.”

Tebow had the option of forgoing his senior year of college and entering the NFL Draft.

In his three seasons in Gainesville, Tebow has won two national titles and the 2007 Heisman Trophy.

Read the story about Tebow’s announcement.

Now here’s my question…Will Tebow be the best college football player ever when his career is over?

Let me know.

My BCS NCG prediction

January 8th, 2009, 4:36 pm by Josh Weinfuss

A lot has been made out of Tim Tebow’s humanity, Oklahoma’s no-huddle offense and Florida’s speed during this week’s lead up to the FedEx BCS National Championship Game in Miami.

But I think it’s the Sooners secondary that will be the difference between an Oklahoma win or a Florida win.

If Oklahoma’s secondary can play like it did against Texas Tech late in the season, I don’t think Florida’s speed will have a chance to win it the game. But that won’t be the case. The Gators will get to the outside and break through the tackles, and through the Sooners secondary en route to a second national championship in three years.

Final score: Florida 45, Oklahoma 38.

Stoops a little misinformed

January 8th, 2009, 12:55 pm by Josh Weinfuss

I was listening to ESPN Radio last week and a clip was played of Bob Stoops announcing that the Oklahoma Sooners played five ranked teams this season, more than any other team in the country.

Well, Bob, you’re wrong.

First, the Sooners played six: No. 24 TCU (Sept. 21), No. 5 Texas (Oct. 5), No. 16 Kansas (Oct. 12), No. 2 Texas Tech (Nov. 22), No. 11 Oklahoma State (Nov. 29) and No. 19 Missouri (Dec. 6).

That’s one more than the Gators played.

They’ll both up their totals tonight. Florida is ranked No. 1 in the country according to The Associated Press and Oklahoma is No. 2.
