Premature? I don't think so. It was arguably the most impressive utterance in college football since Knute Rockne's (fictitious) "Win one for the Gipper."
It was like Joe Namath's Super Bowl III guarantee, only a little bolder, given that Tebow made the Promise with two months to go in the season, not in the days before the title game.

The Promise
To the fans and everybody in Gator Nation, I’m sorry.
I’m extremely sorry. We were hoping for an undefeated season. That was my goal, something Florida has never done here.
I promise you one thing: A lot of good will come out of this.
You will never see any player in the entire country play as hard as I will play the rest of the season. You will never see someone push the rest of the team as hard as I will push everybody the rest of the season.
You will never see a team play harder than we will the rest of the season.
God bless.
