The Gators Need a Break!

You Got Gator'd!

This bye week couldn't come at a better time for the Gators.  Nothing about this team makes sense anymore.  The offense looks confused.  The defense looks lazy.  The coaching staff has no clue who to put in or what plays to run.  It just doesn't look good.  The good news is the Gators can't lose this weekend! I'll continue to support the Gators no matter what, though. "In all kinds of weather..."


I'm watching Rutgers play Louisville right now, and I really hope the Scarlet Knights can pull out a win on the road.  Can Syracuse beat West Virginia to help give Rutgers a cushion?  Nebraska should have no trouble with Minnesota tomorrow.  LSU's suspensions could give Auburn an advantage, but I still think the winning Tigers will be from LSU.  I don't see too many big upsets happening this weekend, but I think the best chance would be Michigan State shocking Wisconsin.  Anyone else remember last year?

Anyway, let's talk about what Gator fans REALLY care about this weekend (other than hoping Maryland beats FSU!).

Sunday the Dolphins are hosting "Gator Day" to honor the Florida Gators 2008 National Championship football team when Miami takes on Denver.  Could there be a better time for Tim Tebow to take over as the starting QB for the Broncos? Probably not. 

What will Merril Hoge say after the game? Tebow has a great chance to lead the Broncos to victory, but unfortunately, they play arguably the worst team in the NFL.  The Dolphins haven't won a game this season.  The Broncos have only won a single game, but they almost won a second when Tebow stepped in for Orton.  I am sure that Hoge will downplay whatever Tebow does simply because it will be against the Dolphins.  Tebow could score 100 points by himself this game and Hoge would still say he "can't play."  Hoge sound jealous to anyone else? Tebow stays out of trouble, helps people in need and works harder than anyone else, but he'll always have haters.

But Tebow - don't worry about the haters.  Focus on the Gators - we'll always appreciate you.
