Tebo's Quality of Life More Important Then Championship

Florida Quarterback Tim Tebo wants badly to play against LSU and is in Baton Rouge with the team, but has not been cleared to play yet. He really doesn't need to. Backup John Brantley is more than capable of handling Urban Meyer's offense and leading the Gators to a win at Tiger Stadium.

This past week, a study came out saying that NFL players who suffered concussions were more likely to suffer Dementia later in life. I think it's pretty simple here. Tim Tebo's quality of life after football (and he will have a life after football) is more important than winning a championship. I agree with those who say that florida could still play for the National Championship even if they lose to LSU but win the rest of their games, including, of course, the SEC Title Game.

Tebo should sit the LSU game out. Again, Brantley is capable of leading the Gator offense. Florida also has an excellent running attach with Jeff Demps and Immanuel Moody, so it's more than just the quarterback. Florida has the #1 ranked running attack in the country. Florida's defense will also take care of business, so it is not that crucial for Tebo to play in this game. He's not 100% and his quality of life could be in jeopardy, not to mention his future NFL career, should another concussion take place in Baton Rouge.

Bottom line, Tebo should sit out the LSU game. Brantley, Demps and Moody & company can take care of business against the Bayou Bengals.
