While the SEC tends to be one of, if not the best conference in college football, it’s been more than a decade since the Florida Gators have finished the season as the best team in the nation.
The last time Florida won a national championship in football, Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Tim Tebow was leading the offense. That was back in the 2008-09 season, and the Gators topped Oklahoma and that year’s Heisman winner, Sam Bradford, in the BCS national championship game, winning 24-14.
