Even Tim Tebow couldn't have imagined this.
I owe Tim Tebow a big thank you.
TALLAHASSEE - Florida's offense and the weather had a similar effect inside Doak Campbell Stadium on Saturday.
I know part of my job is trying to get fans hopped up and excited for games, but I just don't have it in me this week.
It might sound ridiculous, but No. 2 UF has been defeating its opponents by too much lately.
As he left Florida Field for what may have been the final time on Saturday, Percy Harvin took a much different route than fans are used to seeing from the talented junior receiver.
Okay, I'm convinced.
Brandon Hicks started the week battling Dustin Doe for playing time at the weakside linebacker spot. After his performance in No. 3 UF's 56-6 rout of No. 24 South Carolina, he might enter next week as the starter at strongside linebacker.
The UF-South Carolina game usually isn't the most hyped contest on the Gators' schedule, but maybe it should be.

JACKSONVILLE - Forget the "Gator Stomp," this was the Gator Romp.
JACKSONVILLE - UF linebacker Brandon Spikes made one thing perfectly clear on Georgia's second play from scrimmage: UGA running back Knowshon Moreno would not have his way with the Gators' defense like he did last year.
Make no mistake about it, the "Gator Stomp" is not what gave Georgia its 42-30 win against UF last season. The real momentum-shifting moments came from running back Knowshon Moreno.
As I left the UF-Georgia game last season, two thoughts ran through my head.
UF coach Urban Meyer is a big fan of telling his players they have a 90 percent chance of winning when they block a punt. He hasn't given them odds for blocking two punts and a field goal yet, but cornerback Joe Haden seems to have figured it out.
When UF and Kentucky studied film of each other this week, they might as well have been watching a mystery movie and a horror flick.
