Florida’s Tim Tebow got knocked woozy. Miami and Florida State simply got knocked over.
No, Saturday was not a delight for Florida’s three biggest teams.
At least the top-ranked Gators won: The defending national champions extended the nation’s longest winning streak to 14, beating Kentucky 41-7 and surviving the scare of seeing Tebow lying motionless on the turf in the third quarter after taking two hits to the head.
No. 9 Miami was overmatched at No. 11 Virginia Tech, falling 31-7. And No. 18 Florida State was handed a stunner: Tallahassee native B.J. Daniels – South Florida’s new starting quarterback following a season-ending injury to Matt Grothe – led the Bulls into the Sunshine State’s capital and past the Seminoles, 17-7.
Tebow, said Gators coach Urban Meyer, “took a pretty good shot.”
That was a trend that none of the big three could escape Saturday.
