It’s probably too early to say this, but I’m going to go ahead and do it anyhow.
Tim Tebow is the greatest Florida football player I’ve ever seen, and the greatest in the history of the program.
I’ve covered the Gators for many years (dating to the late 1970s) and I’ve been been going to games since the early 1960s (yes, I’m old), and I’ve never seen a player like Tebow. He’s a true freak of …

How Florida State can win
After some real struggles early in the season, the FSU offense has started to come around with Drew Weatherford back as the starting quarterback. Weatherford is the kind of passer who has given the young Florida secondary nightmares all season. The second quarter against Florida Atlantic a week ago may have been the worst stretch of the season for the young cornerbacks, and now Joe Haden is nursing a high ankle sprain.
If …

The Heisman Trophy is supposed to go to the best college football player in America.
It’s really that simple.
It’s not supposed to go to the best player on the best team. It’s not supposed to go to the guy with the most yards and touchdowns. It’s not supposed to go to a senior or a junior.
It’s supposed to go to the best player in America.
Simple.
That’s why it drives me …

How Florida Atlantic can win:
Unless the Owls get a bunch of turnovers and make a whole lot of big plays on offense, they probably can’t win this game. But they certainly have the ability to make it very competitive and very interesting (I can sense UF fans starting to squirm already).
FAU has the kind of passing attack that has befuddled the young Florida defense all season. Quarterback Rusty Smith has a strong, accurate arm and he’s …

Tim Tebow’s amazing performance in Columbia last Saturday night certainly has created a buzz around the Florida program and around college football, where the Heisman hype is really starting to crank up now that the season is winding down to a final few weeks.
Was it the best quarterback performance in school history?
You could certainly come up with a strong argument that it was.
Tebow rushed for 120 yards and a school-record five touchdowns. He passed for 304 yards …

How South Carolina can win:
Steve Spurrier.
I could leave it at that and everyone would understand. He beat his
old school two years ago in a game that cost the Gators the Eastern
Division championship. Last year in The Swamp (which, of course,
Spurrier named back in the early 1990s) he nearly pulled off the upset.
Had it not been for Jarvis Moss blocking Ryan Succop’s 48-yard field
goal attempt on the final play, Spurrier wins that game and denies …

No one on the Florida practice field knew what to expect last Tuesday when true freshman center Michael Pouncey changed jersey colors and moved over to defense. But the big guy made an immediate impact.
He brought much-needed enthusiasm and spark to a defense that had slipped into the doldrums after back-to-back poor performances against Kentucky and Georgia. And he brought some much-needed size and strength to the middle of the defensive line.
In the Vanderbilt …

Prediction time
Here’s how Vanderbilt can win Saturday’s game:
We all know the formula here, don’t we? It’s like a broken record. Vandy quarterback Mackenzi Adams will have all day to throw, the Gators will have no one capable of covering Earl Bennett and George Smith (and everybody else) and the Commodores will be flying up and down The Swamp all afternoon. This certainly isn’t a bold prediction because this is the way it has played out every …
