Go Gators!

TebowIn front of a Ben Hill Griffin Stadium record crowd of 90,833 fans and a national television audience watching on ESPN, the fifth-ranked Gators (2-0) handed Miami a 26-3 defeat on Saturday night. The victory snapped a six-game Florida losing streak against the Hurricanes dating back to 1985. The win improved UF head coach Urban Meyer to a perfect 6-0 against in-state opponents, outscoring the opponents by a 227-56 margin. Miami’s three points were the fewest the Hurricanes have scored against the Gators since an 18-0 Florida shutout in 1960.

Junior quarterback Tim Tebow (Jacksonville, Fla.) was 21-of-35 for 256 yards and two touchdowns and rushed 13 times for 55 yards. He established a school record with 130 consecutive passes without an interception and also surpassed UF legend Steve Spurrier on Florida’s all-time total offensive yards list to move into ninth place with 5,473 total yards.
