Surviving this first third of this season for college football has appeared to be something of an extended stand at the goal line for the country's top ten teams. Nine teams have already fallen during the first month of this exciting season, including three that fell just on Saturday alone. LSU just recently narrowly avoided having been the fourth victim this past weekend, having managed to hold of Mississippi State within mere inches of those go-ahead points with only a minute remaining. There are six teams out of the top ten that at current remain undefeated. The University of Florida Gators and the LSU Tigers are two of these teams, and they are slated to go up against one another on October 10.

Florida is currently undefeated at 4 and 0. A lot of their success this week is going to depend on how well the quarterback, Tim Tebow manages to recover, as he recently sustained a concussion on Saturday night while playing against Kentucky. He managed to return home on Sunday afternoon after he spent the night in a hospital in Lexington, Kentucky but only for precautionary purposes. Tebow was injured during the third quarter, and the Gators were ahead at that point with 31 to 7.

He ended up being sacked, and his helmet was struck by a knee. He was already suffering from a respiratory infection so this is only adding fuel to the fire for him. He flew to Lexington on a plane with a small collection of players that was separate from the team. The school also paid for another plane, a third one, for the other players that were ill.

The Gators are heading off this weekend to go up against the No. 4. team, LSU. The status of Tim Tebow is not currently known, and is not actually expected to be revealed until several days have passed.

LSU is also currently undefeated at 4 and 0. Their goal line stand up against Mississippi state was probably the best that they've had so late in the game since somewhere around 1959. This was when Warren Rabb teamed up with Billy Cannon to stop Ole Miss' Doug Elmore just a bit short of a touchdown on October 31, which preserved their 89 yard legendary punt return for a 7 to 3 win, where they claimed an eventual Heisman Trophy.

Things have been tough for LSU so far, and it is really only going to get tougher for them now. While both teams may be as yet undefeated, the UF Gators have a lot of spark that simply does not seem capable of being stopped. The only thing that is going to give LSU an edge is if Tim Tebow has to sit the game out while he recovers from the double hit of a respiratory illness and a concussion, which could be enough to keep him sidelined this upcoming week.

The No. 1 UF Gators have managed to take Kentucky down with 41 to 7 in Lexington.

Still the top ranked college team in football, the Gator football team has managed to improve their score to an overall 4 and 0 and a SEC 2 and 0 after claiming a beautiful 41 to 7 victory against Kentucky this past Saturday evening. The game was held at the Commonwealth Stadium which is located in Lexington Kentucky. The Gators maintained a spark that came about following a first quarter that was record breaking, as they jumped into a quick and beautiful 31 to 0 lead, having amassed a total of 223 offense yards.

The Gators were led to victory by the senior quarterback, Tim Tebow from St. Augustine, Florida, who managed to finish the night with five of ten for a total of 103 years and a touchdown pass. He surpassed the previous season high mark for rushing yardage that he held by tallying 79 yards. He managed to finish the game out with 16 carries, 123 yards and two touchdowns, which marked the first 100 yard long rushing performance for a Gator during this season. He has been propelled into the second place mark in the SEC's record book for all time rushing touchdowns as well.

The Gator offense managed to go right to work, and they managed to make scores on the first five of their drives. The Gator defense on the other hand forced Kentucky into five different three and out situations with their first five possessions of the game.

The second drive of Florida's game began with an excellent field position, beginning on the 36 yard line on the Kentucky side, and they held the Wildcats into a quick three and out. With 7:11 left to play within the first quarter of the game, Florida already had a 10 and 0 advantage over the Wildcats.

The Gators defense managed to hold the Wildcats without a single first down until there was only 8:48 remaining within the first half, but the Wildcats eventually managed to cut into the Gators' lead at the end of the first half, bringing the score to 31 to 7.

In the second half, Florida got its first points with only 3:49 remaining in the third quarter, when Sturgis kicked a 32 yard long field goal, giving Florida a 34 to 7 advantage. By the final stanza, and with only 6:39 remaining on the clock, the Gators managed to launch themselves into a 41 to 7 lead over Kentucky.

The Gators are returning to action in a few weeks on October 10, as they are traveling to Baton Rouge, Louisiana so that they can go up against the LSU Tigers.
