Crist Bets the Grove on Tebow

Alabama-Florida governors make a wager on UF versus 'Bama

We bet Gov. Charlie Crist wears Tim Tebow underwear.

Crist is putting his oranges where his mouth is in a bet against Alabama Gov. Bob Riley for bragging rights and barbecue in the Florida versus Alabama SEC Championship game on Saturday.

If Tebow and the boys beat the second-ranked Crimson Tide, Riley has to ship a rack of those sweet 'Bama BBQ ribs to Tallahassee. If Bama pulls the upset, Crist has to provide Riley with the state's famous citrus fruit.

There was a rumor the two Republican governors would have to give back President Obama stimulus money if their team lost, but Crist was having none of that. (We kid, we kid.)

The winner of the UF-Alabama game has a little more at stake: a berth in the BCS National Championship game.
