GAINESVILLE, Fla. — If this was Tim Tebow's final game at Florida Field, coach Urban Meyer let him put on a show.

At least for a quarter and a half.

Tebow threw for 201 yards and three touchdowns, Chris Rainey ran for 142 yards and a score, and the third-ranked Gators overwhelmed The Citadel 70-19 today.

Florida (10-1) scored touchdowns on its first seven possessions, racked up 512 yards in the first half alone and became the first Southeastern Conference team to score at least 42 points in six consecutive games.

The Gators finished with 705 yards and did little wrong against an overmatched opponent from the Football Championship Subdivision. Even when they tried to run out the clock to end the opening half, Rainey broke up the middle for a 46-yard gain.

Another telling sign of the mismatch came early in the third quarter when Meyer gave defensive tackle Javier Estopinan, a fifth-year senior who has undergone three knee operations and isn't even listed on the depth chart, a carry near the goal line. Estopinan scored untouched from a yard out, the first touchdown of his career, to make it 56-6.

Florida's stars had plenty of success, too, against one of the worst defenses in the Southern Conference.

Tebow, a junior who might consider turning pro, finished 9-of-11 passing and ran for 34 yards. He was in for five plays in the second quarter, then turned things over to backup John Brantley.

Percy Harvin ran three times for 49 yards and a touchdown, extending his scoring streak to 13 games, and caught two passes for 76 yards.

Emmanuel Moody ran 13 times for 116 yards and a touchdown. Brantley finished 8-of-11 for 110 yards and score.

Rainey and Riley Cooper had the top two plays in a game filled with Florida highlights. Rainey started left, got spun completely around by linebacker Jordon Gilmore, took a few steps in the wrong direction, cut across the field and ended up with a 73-yard gain.

Kestahn Moore, one of 21 seniors honored before the game, scored the first of his two touchdowns two plays later.

Cooper made a one-handed catch on a 43-yard touchdown pass from Tebow. Ryan Jones had Cooper's right arm hooked, but Cooper still hauled in the long pass.

The Gators extended their winning streak to seven games, continued their first-quarter success and looked every bit ready for next week's game against rival Florida State. Florida has outscored its last seven opponents 122-0 in the first quarter.

Florida's defense was just as dominant as the offense. The Gators were up 42-0 and had most of their defensive starters on the sideline when The Citadel (4-8) finally found the end zone.

Receiver Scott Flanagan pulled up on a reverse and threw a 29-yard TD pass to quarterback Cam Turner. The Bulldogs missed the extra point.

Turner, who also threw a touchdown in the final minute, finished 15 of 30 for 169 yards. He threw two interceptions and was sacked four times.
