Florida's 14-6 upset of LSU was one of the major talking points Saturday in the college football world. It also gave NFL players the chance to exercise their thumbs a little and tweet their thoughts.
And the most famous Florida Gator of them all -- New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow -- was among the former players who had to let their feelings known to the Twitter-verse.
Big game and a hard fought win at the Swamp! It's great to be a Florida Gator! #GoGators

Some players were more interested in Stanford-Arizona than Florida's victory down in the swamp.
Where is the defense in Palo Alto? #Arizona and #Stanford scoring like the USA Olympic Hoops team against Nigeria... #shootout

No better way to spend a Saturday watching @stanfordfball win a close one. Nunes grew up today and @kulabafi is a monster #ProudAlum #NERDS

Other NFL players were staying busy poking fun at one another's schools. Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and running back Leon Washington are no exceptions.
My man @leon_washington thinks the Noles are going to win tonight... He may be in for a rude awakening just like in 2010! @ncstatefootball

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White stated the obvious following the University of Alabama-Birmingham's blowout victory over Southeastern Louisiana.
