Carson Beck went full Tim Tebow after Miami kept its CFP title dreams alive

Related Topics: Tim Tebow, Chris Leak

Tim Tebow has always admitted a bit of an affinity for Carson Beck. It makes some sense, they both played high school in the Jacksonville area and were highly-touted prospects that faced a great deal of expectations in their college career.

Tebow proved to be as good as advertised. He played a major role in the Gators championship season in 2006 as a backup quarterback to Chris Leak and went on to win another title in 2008 as the starter. In between two seasons, Tebow happened to win a Heisman Trophy.

Beck has had a fine college career, not to the success of Tebow.
