Tim Tebow!

Wasn't Tebow a redshirt freshman that year?

I think he was a true FS but Chris Leak started that game and "led" them to the title.

Hint: It doesn't have to be in the BCS era.

Bernie Kosar

Not Kosar.

Can't remember his name, but he played at Oklahoma. Bosworth team.

Jamelle Holieway?

I know Tebow didn't start. But we all know he was the True Leader of that team. And all others since.
