Moving on
In the end, it really didn't matter. The SEC champion, even if it has one loss, is almost certainly going to play for the national title, but Florida wants more than to just win the SEC title and get to the BCS championship. This is a team that wants to make a huge statement, and even in a tough, close win, it made one.
Every top team has a game when things aren't working quite right. Florida didn't have linebacker Brandon Spikes, Tim Tebow was still trying to get his head cleared up and the fumbles were coming in droves. The Gators lost the ball four times, the secondary gave up several big plays and this wasn't a Florida-like performance. But the team survived and moved on.
The game was at home, and no one's confusing Arkansas with Alabama as far as being a complete team, but Tebow came up with the throws he needed to make in the fourth quarter, Caleb Sturgis hit his kick while Alex Tejada missed two big ones and Florida got out with the win. Florida won a game it shouldn't have, which is what the top teams do, but this might also be a sign the Gators have the potential to get tagged. Even though this was a win, it might be speech-making time against for Tebow.
