Mother jokes on the board…no matter where I go. No, Tebow was not banging my mother…I made her wear a LSU hat, Auburn t-shirt, and Georgia underwear when they hung out and Tebow couldn't seem to get it up. However, I put your mother in a Troy hat, FAU shirt, and Western Kentucky underwear and he scored at will.
How dare you Walty!!! My mother would not wear a Troy hat!

ugh! He won. I can respect him as a player, and the number's he put up were pretty outstanding.
The numbers he put up were outstanding, I agree
but look
part of the reason why he won is that everybody kept aligning him with the Heisman every time they mentioned it. It was psychological overkill, just Tebow Heisman Tebow Heisman Tebow Heisman. UF is very good at taking something and shoving it down your throats… like when they put the phrase "National Champs" on a GATORS cereal box, for crying out loud. I think it was on the UF dustbuster I saw at Walmart too. I mean really.
But at least they know how to celebrate it. FAU won the SBC and Athletics didn't put up a single thing on campus telling people about it.
Back to Tebow…
Another reason I think he won it is this… I think some money changed hands. UF didn't really have anything else to brag about this year… sure, they're going to a bowl but they didn't win the SEC title, they didn't go to a National Championship game…. suddenly the team that can't shut up about itself has nothing to sell and brag about. So they pushed to get Tebow to have the Heisman. "First sophomore in history to win the Heisman"… definitely sounds like something UF would want to scream from the mountaintops.

Tebow is the only QB to have more than 20 TD's rushing and passing, and he was also the most consistent player considered a heisman candidate. So, for those reasons he deserves it and for those reasons he won it.
As for pushing for the heisman… I remember when Joey Harrington was in the running a few years back, some people from Oregon purchased a billboard in NYC to put his face up there and try to sway voters. Just like we all pushed for Rusty to win the USAToday Player of the Week.

Just a reminder - this thread is about Tim Tebow (not family members).

Re: If Tebow wins the heisman I think I am going to snap
UF did rack up points against weaker teams and Tebow did perform well in those games. But, let me ask you this, what does it mean to win the Heisman past one night in New York City?
What did it mean for Troy Smith?
It means nothing on grand scheme of things, and for all intensive purposes it actually hurts the award winners. Look back in history and see how well Heisman trophy winners preformed in bowl games following their award presentations. Not good. And take a look at how many Heisman winners did nothing in the pro's.
Ty Detmer?
Jason White?
Eric Crouch?
Chris Weinke?
Danny Wuerffel?
Gino Toretta?
Above all that, let's hypothetically say UF constructed a way to get Tebow the heisman like some of you believe. In the process of doing that they took themselves out of the national championship picture and had 3 losses.
So congrats to UF, you got an individual award in a team sport and you finished third in a relatively down year in the SEC.
So, really did it all matter?
