Today was the last game for Tebow in Gainesville. Tebow and the Gators faced the Florida State Seminoles in their classic rivalry game. Tebow finished at the Swamp on a very high note with over 300 total yards, 3 TD passes and 2 TD runs. What a way to go out. As for Number 2 Alabama, they played yesterday against Auburn and avoided an upset as they beat Auburn 26-21. Greg McElroy picked up the slack for the lack of Alabama running throwing for 218 yards and 2 TDs. #3 Texas avoided an upset of their own on Thanksgiving as they beat Texas A&M 49-39. Both offenses were on fire and but Texas managed to stop A&M's offense a few key times for the win. Colt McCoy added to the offensive fire with 304 Yards and 4 TD passes.
There were other key games this weekend as well. #4 TCU beat New Mexico 51-10 hoping that their effort will get them into the National Championship game. They Finish the season 12-0. #5 Cincinnati beats Illinois 49-36 thanks to Tony Pike's 399 yards and 6 TD passes. They still have to go through Pittsburgh who lost their game this week to West Virginia 19-16. #6 Boise State beats Nevada 44-33 with the help of Kellen Moore's 5 TD passes. Boise State finishes the regular season 12-0 and now waits to see if anybody falls. Another big game was Notre Dame vs. Stanford with Charlie Weis' career at the school was on the line. This game went back and forth a bit until Stanford came out on top. Despite Jimmy Clausen throwing 5 TD passes, Notre Dame's Defense just couldn't stop Toby Gerhart who had 205 rushing yards and 3 running TDs.
P.S. I think that Charlie Weis is done as he has lost four games in a row now. His team is 6-6 and they just don't seem to be getting any better. But if this was any other program he would probably stay around but this is Notre Dame and has higher standards. What are they again?
