→Breakdown: The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner, Tebow is one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks of all-time. At 6-foot-3, 240 pounds, he’s a load out of the backfield when he decides to run. But Tebow can also step back and deliver all the necessary throws to keep the Gator offense ticking. In those respects, he’s as unique an athlete to ever play college football.

Percy Harvin, receiver
→Stats: Totaled more than 500 rushing and receiving yards and scored 9 TDs.

→Breakdown: Harvin is the lightning to Tebow’s thunder. Used as both a slot receiver and a running back, Harvin is a versatile weapon, which is why he’s so hard to defend. He’s coming off an ankle injury that kept him out of the SEC Championship, but he should be 100 percent for the title game.

Brandon James, kickoff/punt returner
→Stats: Returned two punts for touchdowns and totaled almost 1,200 return yards

→Breakdown: He doesn’t add much to the actual offense, but James’ ability to break big runs on kickoff and punt returns makes him a dangerous element in the Gator attack. James is arguably the best return man in college football, earning consensus All-America honors.
