Yep. No contact. Light contact today. If everything goes well, more contact tomorrow. Full contact Saturday.

if i had to guess, tebow will probably "start" play a bit throughout the game but brantley will get most of the snaps however it works out

The whole thing reminds me of this guy:



Meyer wants us to think Tebow is playing, meaning he will not play so clearly we must prepare for Brantley.

But wait, Meyer would expect us to react that way and prepare for Brantley so clearly we must prepare for Tebow instead.

Etc. etc. etc.

I say just prepare to put a lot of pressure on either or both of them. Brantley is inexperienced and Tebow's comming off a concussion so pressure should have some effect on either one.

Meyer isn't saying because he feels he needs every edge he can get in this game.

Notice the time of the article. TT did practice since it was written. Doesn't mean he'll play but based on UM's comments today there is a chance he will play.

I predict he's pulled by halftime relative to mistakes and sacks.


Who would they put in? If Tebow is cleared to play, he starts. If not, I doubt he even dresses (maybe he dresses just to have us think he can come in, but he won't).

This game is THE MOST IMPORTANT for Florida. If Tebow still could not add 1+1, CUM would force the doctors to clear him for Saturday.

Tebow will play.

I don't see how you can say that. This game is a feel-good game for Florida, but if they lose here, they still run the table in the SEC East, make it to Atlanta. A win in Atlanta gets them to Pasadena.

They don't need to win this game and don't need to rush Tebow back.

Guess C.U.M. only cares about Tebow for playing... not for his health.

I personally would love to See Tebow start. I would love to see him get rocked.

Course this will be ridiculous if Teblow leads UF to victory.

He will no longer be superman... he will be God. Not just any God either... but THE God. They will change all the likenesses pictured anywhere of God to a dorky looking geek wearing an ugly colored uniform.

I can see the headlines now...

"Teblow rises from the crucifix to lead UF to victory"

or would it be...

"Teblow laughs in the face of death and crawls to the playing field in time to lead UF to victory"

Hopefully this is an understatement. All things said, I expect him to play a helluva game. He's as proud of a competitor as I've ever seen in Tiger Stadium. It'll be a treat to go up against him again, especially without Harvin.

I think the Gators could line up a RB at QB and win this game. Hopefully we have some luck though, and play strong enough to capitalize on it if we get it.

Get this! Any coach that plays a play Tebow gets a
serious re-injury. Make no mistake about it, that coach will be COOKED!

looks like Brantley probably will

This seems like a stall tactic by Meyer:
