Tim Tebow’s final game, witnessed by 90,907 Gator fans on Florida Field, was a 37-10 beat down of Florida State. Tebow gave his best performance of the season with three passing TDs and 2 rushing. Tebow broke former Gator Chris Leak’s SEC and Florida total offensive yardage records, racking up 311 yards (221 passing, 90 rushing) to bring his career total to 11,389. He also rushed for his 56th career touchdown, putting him two ahead of Walker even if the touchdowns he scored in bowl games are counted. Now is not the time to get all emotional, because there are still two big games left for Tebow and this great Senior class to play.
