Congrats to Florida...

Now, I am not one to say I told you so, but I had a pretty good hunch that the Gators were going all the way. A big part of this game was defense and turnovers, and Florida came up big. If Oklahoma didn't have two empty trips to the red-zone, things might have been different. Along with that, the two picks that Bradford threw were tips, and not really his fault. The defense made those happen, where as Tebows picks were more his fault.
But to reiterate, Tim Tebow is an amazing competitor. On strengthsquest, competition is my #2, but I think it's Tim's #1-5. He played out of his mind. Busting to get those first downs, throwing strikes after the two picks, and talking some smack (which I really think is his excitement getting the best of him). On top of everything, he keeps God first in his interviews, and under his eyes, and that is something to admire. I think Tim and the Gators earned what they got, and I celebrate with them.
Let's just hope the AP doesn't pull any crap and try to crown someone else number one. The season is over, and Florida won.
