UF Opponents Have To Be Careful Of The Tebow Thing

http://www.tbo.com/sports/gators/MGBQ1Z0VW6F.html

Unless he's Superman - hey, who really knows for sure? - Florida Gators sophomore quarterback Tim Tebow will struggle to get out of bed this morning. "My body feels good," Tebow said in protest. But Gators coach Urban Meyer was fretting about Tebow's workload - 27 carries for 166 yards, the best rushing performance ever by a Florida QB - in Saturday afternoon's 30-24 escape against the suddenly game Ole Miss Rebels. Over and over, Tebow's number was called, usually on basic keepers up the middle. Meyer described the play-calling trend as a trap, a crutch.
