Didn't Tebow make a comment saying he wishes he could have played against more Big 12 defenses or some such thing ?
Yea, well, kinda, sort of...
Taken from the provided link:
During its broadcast of the SEC Championship Game, CBS play-by-play announcer Verne Lundquist discussed a conversation he had with Tebow regarding the quarterback's Heisman ballot. According to Lundquist's account, Tebow said he would consider voting for one of the Big 12 quarterbacks, then the quarterback smiled and said, "But I'd really like to throw against some of those defenses in the Big 12."
Tebow later told reporters he never said Big 12 defenses were inferior to those in the SEC. That hasn't stopped Franks from using that perceived slight as motivation.

IMO,this just ain't that big of a deal.When I first saw this yesterday,I thought the Franks guy had called Tebow a fig or something.
