Brantley looks to fill void left by Tebow

[O-town Gator]

"Despite its second consecutive 13-win season, and second consecutive BCS bowl victory, many viewed last season as a relative disappointment because Florida failed to win the Southeastern Conference title and earn a trip to Pasadena, Calif., for the BCS title game.

This year’s team, however, will have a very different look to it, both on the field and the sidelines.

Let’s start with the loss of Tim Tebow, who was arguably the face of college football for the last three years."

I can't wait for the season to get started. I think Brantley will etch his place in Gator history as better than all the rest!

I couldn't agree with you more. The guy showed flashes of being a winner even when Tebow was there, and he was even better in high school than Tebow (statistically). Not a goal line threat as Tebow was, but very nible on his feet. I REALLY like a mobile QB, especially in our offensive system. The running game definately has to step up to keep defense honest against Brantley. I think Gator fans should rest assured that our new QB will not only be "just fine", but he may very well be on Heisman watch lists soon.
