Grothe may be good, but Tebow is a whole different level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushing? I doubt.Tebow is strong and can fight off a lot of tackles, but Grothe doesn't have all that muscle and allows him to be more slippery and fast.12 of his 22 rushing touchdowns (can't quite remember if it was 22 or not) were 3 yards or less. But, don't get me wrong, 6 points is 6 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has pretty much the same yardage on less carries. . . .nothing less, nothing more. I don't think Grothe is close to being the player Tebow is overall.

The only dream that he has left to accomplish is beating Auburn...never done that. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
