Found this interesting:
"Tebow becomes the third Florida quarterback to win the Heisman and, as a result, every preacher in the Sunshine State will have his son throwing on Sunday. All three Gators quarterbacks who won the Heisman -- Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996) and Tebow -- are the sons of clergymen."
Other tidbits:
"McFadden made a little history of his own, becoming the first player in almost 60 years to finish second in consecutive seasons (Charlie Justice, 1948-49). "
"In Tebow's two seasons at Florida, not Alabama, he has won a national championship and a Heisman. The best news of all for college football: Tebow will be back in 2008."

More on Tebow:
"The legend of Tebow started at Nease High School in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., where he once finished a game playing on a broken leg.
Homeschooled by missionary parents who run an orphanage in the Philippines, Tebow took advantage of a Florida state law to play for Nease, about 90 miles from the University of Florida campus.
Tebow has worked and preached at his parents' orphanage since he was 15. He regularly speaks at schools and delivered his message of faith at a prison in Florida earlier this year."
