Tebow broke right hand; probable for Bowl

[saltydog21]

"The Heisman Trophy hopeful sustained a non-displaced fracture in his non-throwing hand during his 5-yard touchdown run on the opening drive of the third quarter against Florida State, team spokesman Steve McClain said Sunday.

Team doctors looked at his hand and did some tests on the sideline, but Tebow said he was OK to play and stayed in the game.

X-rays following Florida's 45-12 victory revealed the severity of injury.

The Gators (9-3) probably will play in either the Capital One Bowl in Orlando or the Outback Bowl in Tampa on New Year's Day, and they expect Tebow to be back in time to play."

This is just another reason why he should be the Heisman winner. He broke his hand in the third quarter and stayed in the game. Glad to see he will still make the bowl game in Orlando. Glad I have tickets. Way to go TEBOW you are the man.

^ That's a good one. I hope he gets better. He didn't even show that he was hurt. That just goes to show how strong he is

Actually, in the 2nd quarter, I saw the trainers dealing with Tebows hand. Sprayed something on it??? He will play in the bowl game.
