College Football Scores: Tim Tebow Leads #15 Florida Gators Past #7 Kentucky Wildcats in SEC Match Up

Atlanta, Ga. 10/21/2007 7:32:39 AM

Tim Tebow threw for 256 yards and four touchdowns and added another 78 yards on the ground and a TD as the #15 Florida Gators beat the #7 Kentucky Wildcats 45-37 on Saturday.

 

It was Kentucky who got on the board first as quarterback Andre’ Woodson found Dicky Lyons on a 33-yard touchdown in the first quarter but Tebow countered with a pair of touchdown passes, a 10-yarder to Cornelius Ingram and a 66-yard strike to Louis Murphy.

 

The Wildcats cut the Florida lead to four on a field goal late in the second quarter but the Gators capitalized on the ensuing kickoff as Brandon James returned it 61 yards to the Kentucky 38 yard line. Tebow capped the 10-play drive with a 1-yard toss to Aaron Hernandez and the Gators were up 21-10 at halftime.

 

Florida looked ready to run away with the game early in the third quarter as Tebow found Andre Caldwell on an 8-yard touchdown and an 18-point advantage.

 

Woodson brought the Wildcats back as he hit Jacob Tamme on a 28-yard touchdown pass and after the Gators kicked a field goal Woodson connected with Dicky Lyons on a 50-yard touchdown to pull to within seven.

 

The Gators weren’t about to buckle though and Percy Harvin gave his team a 14-point cushion when he scored on a 24-yard run early in the fourth quarter. That lead was quickly cut to seven when Woodson and Lyons hooked up for their third touchdown of the game to put the score at 38-31 with 3:35 remaining in the game.

 

Kentucky needed to hold the Gators but when Florida faced a second and seven Tebow found Harvin on a 40-yard reception that ended on the two yard line. Tebow then pounded it in for the final nail in the coffin.

 

While Kentucky fell, Woodson had a phenomenal game as he threw for 415 yards and five touchdowns.

 

The win moved the Gators to 5-2 on the year and 3-2 in the SEC while Kentucky dropped to 6-2 and 3-2 in the SEC.
