After suffering a concussions two weeks ago against Kentucky, many are wondering whether Tim Tebow can or should play this weekend at Death Valley. The top ranked Gators are taking on the number 4 ranked LSU Tigers. Florida coach Urban Meyer has stated that it will likely be a game-time decision.

Meyer said there would be ongoing evaluation and communication up until the 8 p.m. ET kickoff Saturday.

Meyer said he would err on the side of caution on whether to play Tebow even if the quarterback gets medical clearance. Tebow underwent more testing Wednesday morning.

Meyer also said the crowd noise at Tiger Stadium could be a factor.

Personally, I would lean on the side of caution and not play Tebow. Win or lose I cannot see anybody keeping Florida out of the National Championship game with a minimum 1 loss assuming they win the SEC Championship. I would want to make sure that Tebow is completely healthy for that game.

If  Tebow does not play, it is not a given for LSU. Backup QB John Brantley is very capable. LSU will also have to solve their offensive woes against a very stingy and veteran Florida defense.

I obtained this autograph from Tim c/o his home address in 25 days during the summer after his sophmore year.

Florida Savior quarterback Tim Tebow was knocked out of the Florida Gators game against the Kentucky Wildcats when he was leveled with a helmet-to-helmet hit.

Taylor Wyndham lead with his helmet as he made contact with Tebow’s helmet as Tim fell to the ground his head was snapped forward when it hit the back of a lineman’s leg.

The concussion left Tebow motionless on the field as trainers and the entire Gators team went onto the field to assist their wounded leader. Tebow finally raised up and was led to the sidelines where he sat and stared into the twilight zone as he seemed totally out of it.  He left the game with 12:41 remaining in the 3rd quarter.

Tebow was also captured by ESPN’s cameras puking almost nonstop on the sideline before he was finally led off the field.  He was then taken to an area hospital in an ambulance.  There has been no official word yet on his status or the exact injury sustained.

Up until that point Tebow was having a great game. He had rushed for 123 yards on 16 carries and had 2 touchdowns.

UPDATE: Tebow is being kept at the UK Medical Center overnight for observation.

UPDATE 2: Tebow will be released today and fly back to Florida. He is reported to be fine and in a joking mood. The CT scans didn’t show any damage.
