The man himself returned and although it wasn’t the best offensive display we’ve ever seen, it follows what may be this season’s motto: “a win is a win.” Florida didn’t win big. The Gators didn’t win pretty. But the orange and blue won and remain the top team in all the land.Tim Tebow, post-concussion and all, ran the ball 17 times and put it in the air 16 to lead Florida to the 13-3 win over LSU.
