Former college football head coach Urban Meyer has never been shy about where Tim Tebow ranks in the history of the sport. On a recent episode of The Triple Option, the three-time national championship coach made the case for his former quarterback again. This time, the focus shifted to managing the circus that surrounded Tebow's storied Florida career.
Meyer called Tebow "a very polarizing figure," which was meant as a compliment. Because in the same breath the former Florida coach said Tebow "was the best player in college football history."

And nobody was going to beat Nebraska that year. The most dominating team I’ve ever seen.

Did you not watch the Washington Huskies hammer Nebraska in Lincoln on September 21, 1991? Washington 36, Nebraska 21. That ended a 20-game winning streak at home against nonconference opponents. Now THAT was a dominating team. (Okay - I am a Huskies fan. :)

The only 2-time Heisman winner, Archie Griffin, might have a thing to say.
