For pete's sake, get a room already.
Also, I'm pretty sure that cursing when speaking of Tebow is sin of the highest order. Luckily for Meyer, he probably went and made penance immediately.

I usually don't subscribe to the media hates X team, or loves Y team type beliefs. And I certainly don't think the Texas Longhorns are overlooked by the media in most instances. But it really serves as a means for illustration how infatuated the media is with Tebow and the Tebow-led version of the Gators. When he set the SEC touchdown record, it was the top story on every college football outlet. Ss a point for comparison, there's been little national discussion of Colt assuming the lead in the all-time wins category. I can only imagine what the reaction would be if Tebow were to own the record. It's a bit much.

@Nicholas M:
Yes. That's totally what he meant. Not that his good deeds were setting a positive example for others, he meant that Tim Tebow invented the selfless act.
Idiot.
@BenB:
Really? I've heard from a few dozen outlets that Colt McCoy beat David Greene's record.
I bet it has more to do with the fact that the old record was held by David Greene for 4 years, while the record Tebow broke was held by Herschel Walker for 26 years, so that when Colt's record is mentioned, it is mentioned less prominently.

Tim Tebow is a poor man's Tommy Frazier. And Tommy Frazier did it with a blood clot, not an izmel.

Man Carl V, someone stomp on your Tebow Love Parade? Seriously, get over yourself. Learn to take a joke. And who cares if David Greene's record was only held for 4 years vs 26? Isn't the only thing that matters the win and loss column? It doesn't matter if you score 200 touchdowns in a single game if the other team scores 201. Colt McCoy's wins record is FAR, FAR more meaningful than Tebow's touchdown one. So please go back to SEC country; where every team is invincible when it comes to playing anyone outside of the south.

Also, thanks to Tim Tebow, do you know what else is in? $4,000,000 a year coaching salaries!

At least there is a role model getting GOOD press!! I want my kids looking up to him and wanting to do charity work instead of hearing about players that are involved in cheating, DUI's and armed robbery. I say give Tebow all the press you want because teenagers NEED to read about the good way more than they need to read about the bad. Quit griping and throwing the haterade becuse he's not on YOUR team.

#8, it would be really funny to see Tebow on Notre Dame or Boston College. I don't think those fans would really want to have Tebow on their team.

@#6:
For me to take a joke, it actually has to be funny. And not end with wishing a college athlete to injure themselves.
And it matters because the longer a record stands, the 'bigger' it is. When McGuire beat Ruth's record in 1998, it was a huge deal. When Bonds beat McGuire's record in 2001, it wasn't. That's why.

Err.
McGuire beat Marris' record. Sorry, brain fart.
And, just to prove you more wrong, "genius_man" (Oh, such a poor choice of names)... I'm a fan of Texas you blithering idiot.

"Haterade"... really? That's awfully clever. God I can't wait until this chapter of college football history is over.
Also, I hope Tebow is crushed by McClain in the SECCG. I can see Urban choking back the tears as his beloved is assisted off the field.

Herschel Walker set his record running against the usual SEC teams, mix in a Clemson game or two, TCU, BYU and the Georgia Tech games. He never had the opportunity to run down the throats of Florida International or The Citadel and all the rest of Florida's cupcakes du jour.

So, you were watching Sportscenter too?

@14 Herschel also didn't share the ball with Percy Harvin etc. Look at each player's TD's to carries ratio. Tebow's is better!

I agree with #2...Tebow and Meyer really need to get a room. If UF wins the BCS title game this year, it wouldn't surprise me at all if Urban and Tebow rush into each others arms and spontaneously start making-out on the 50 yard line at the Rose Bowl.
Seriously though...Their overly-publicized mutual adoration does seem a bit tired and a little odd.

"Though Meyer is frequently mentioned as a candidate for more lucurative coaching jobs, he denies any contact has been made. 'I'm not out looking, so if someone's waiting for me to pick up the phone it's not going to happen,' said Meyer. And there's little chance of that over the next four days. Meyer plans to turn his telephone off over the holiday break while he spends lost time with his family. He isn't expecting a lot of calls, anyhow. Word is out that he loves Utah, Meyer explained, and schools are funny about that. Despite speculation to the contrary, including a Florida fan-based Web site that reported a deal with Meyer has already been reached, the coach insists he represents himself. And that no talks have taken place. 'I don't have an agent. People are trying to get me to have one, but I'm just not comfortable with that kind of stuff,' said Meyer. 'I'm coaching my team and taking care of my family.'"
