Florida State has won two national championships (1993 and 1999) and finished in the top five of the AP Poll for 14 straight years from 1987 through 2000. Florida State has produced two Heisman Trophy winners: quarterback Charlie Ward in 1993 and quarterback Chris Weinke in 2000. The current head coach of the team, Bobby Bowden, has won more games than any other NCAA Division I-A coach except Joe Paterno. The team’s defensive coordinator is Mickey Andrews, and its offensive coordinator and head-coach-in-waiting is Jimbo Fisher. The team plays its home games at Doak Campbell Stadium, located on-campus at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida. History 1 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Florida State Seminoles football Women the Florida State University and allowing men to attend the university for the first time since 1905. Football then returned to Florida State University. Calvin Patterson became the first African American player for the Florida State University Seminoles in 1968.[1][2] Stadium 1899 West Florida Seminary football team at College Hall. College Hall was located at the present site of the Westcott Building on the campus of Florida State University Florida State University was established in 1851 as the West Florida Seminary. Football at FSU started as early, or earlier than 1899 at the West Florida Seminary. In 1901, the school was renamed the Florida State College. In 1904 the football team was declared the champions of the state and competed against Georgia Tech and other schools including the Florida Agricultural College in Lake City, one predecessor of the University of Florida in Gainesville, FL. "A view of the north end zone" The stadium, named after former Florida State President Doak S. Campbell, hosted its first game against the Randolph-Macon College Yellowjackets on October 7, 1950 with the Seminoles winning the game 40–7. At that time the facility had a seating capacity of 15,000. Florida State first began play at Centennial Field during the team’s inaugural 1947 season and would continue to play there for the following two years (1948 and 1949). Doak Campbell Stadium, with its original capacity of 15,000 in 1950, was built at a cost of $250,000. In 1954, the stadium grew to a capacity of 19,000. Six thousand more seats were added in 1961. During the Bill Peterson era (1960-70), the stadium was expanded to 40,500 seats, and it remained at that capacity for the next 14 years. Since that time, the stadium has expanded to almost 83,000, largely in part to the success of the football team under head coach Bobby Bowden coupled with the ever growing student body. It now is the largest football stadium in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC). Aesthetically, a brick facade surrounding the stadium matches the architectural design of most of the buildings on the university’s campus. In addition to the obvious recreational uses, The University Center surrounds the stadium and houses many of the university’s 1902 Florida State College football team With the passage of the Buckman Act by the Florida Legislature in 1905, the coeducational Florida State College became the female-only Florida Female College, later renamed the Florida State College for Women. All male students, including the fraternity system and the football team, were transferred to the newly created University of Florida.[1] The end of World War II brought enormous pressure on the university system in Florida. The Florida Legislature responded by renaming the Florida State College for 2 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Tenure 1902-1904 1947 1948-1952 1953-1958 1959 1960-1970 1971-1973 1974-1975 1976-Present Totals Year 1993 1999 Total National Titles Coach W.W.

Florida State’s two most common opponents in bowl play have been Oklahoma and Nebraska. The Seminoles are 1–3 against Oklahoma in bowl games and 4–0 against Nebraska. Florida State’s most common bowl destination has been the Orange Bowl (8 trips). Its second most common bowl destinations have been the Sugar Bowl and the Gator Bowl (6 trips each). Conference championship games Florida State has appeared in the ACC Championship Game as the winner of the Atlantic Division once, defeating Virginia Tech of the Coastal Division in the inaugural game in 2005. Records and results 4 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Florida State Seminoles football viewership (6.9 rating). It was the secondhighest rated game in ESPN history, behind only the 1994 game between Miami and FSU, which notched a 7.7 rating.[2] Rivalries Florida State’s traditional rivals have been the University of Florida Gators and the University of Miami Hurricanes. Since 2002, the Florida Cup has been awarded to the team that finishes the best head-to-head record in years where Florida State, Florida, and Miami all play each other. Four Florida Cups have been awarded, with Miami winning three and Florida winning one. Clemson Bobby is not the only member of his family to coach Division I-A football. His son Tommy Bowden was the former head coach at Clemson University; another son, Terry Bowden, was the head coach at Auburn University where he was the 1993 Coach of the Year; and a third son, Jeff Bowden, was the offensive coordinator at Florida State. All three Bowden men who were head coaches have achieved an undefeated season: Terry in 1993 at Auburn; Tommy in 1998 at Tulane; and Bobby in 1999 at Florida State. Bobby’s 1999 Florida State team was the only one to win a National Championship, however. As both Florida State and Clemson are in the same division of the Atlantic Coast Conference for football, the two teams play every year in a game that has become known as "The Bowden Bowl". Their first meeting, in 1999, was the first time in Division I-A history that a father and a son met as opposing head coaches in a football game. Bobby won the series in the 9 years it played before Tommy’s resignation, winning 5-4 with all four losses within the last five seasons. Tommy’s four wins in the series remain the only times the son has ever beaten the father when facing off as head coach in any of America’s four major sports.[citation needed]. In the first post-Bowden Bowl showdown between the teams on November 8, 2008, Florida State won 41-27 taking a 17-6 lead in the all time series. Florida Florida State and Florida have played each other 51 times. The Gators hold a 32–19–2 all-time lead against the Seminoles. Miami The Miami-Florida State rivalry dates to 1951, when the Hurricanes defeated the Seminoles 35–13 in their inaugural meeting. The schools have played uninterrupted since 1966, with Miami holding the all-time advantage, 30–23. During the 1980s and 90s, the series emerged as perhaps the premier rivalry in college football. Between 1983 and 2002, the Hurricanes and Seminoles combined to win 7 national championships (5 for Miami, 2 for Florida State) and play in a whopping 15 national championship games (83, 85, 86, 87, 89, 91, 92, 93, 96, 98, 99, 00, 01, and 02, 03). The rivalry has been popular not only because of its profound national championship implications and the competitiveness of the games but also because of the immense NFLcaliber talent typically present on the field when the two teams meet. The famous 1987 matchup featured over 50 future NFL players on both rosters combined. The games have been characterized by remarkable team speed, big plays, hard hitting, and missed field goals (see: Wide Right). In 2004, the intensity of the rivalry was dialed up another notch when Miami joined the Atlantic Coast Conference and the teams became intra-conference rivals. The rivalry was a television ratings bonanza, accounting for the two highest rated college football telecasts in ESPN history. The 2006 game between Miami and FSU was the second most-viewed college football game, regular season or bowl, in the history of ESPN, averaging 6,330,000 households in Academic Cheating Scandal In Spring 2007 several FSU football players, including some starters, were accused of cheating in a music history class. The investigation into academic wrongdoing, which was reported to the NCAA in September 2007, found that several student-athletes were given answers to exams in a music history class. According to an interview Bobby Bowden did with ESPN’s Jack Arute, "Bowden confirmed that at least 22 of the 36 football players who will miss the Music City Bowl will do so 5 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia because of their involvement in a cheating scandal the school uncovered this summer. According to an Associated Press story, as many as 36 football players, including linebacker Dekoda Watson, cornerback Patrick Robinson, quarterback Xavier Lee, tight-ends Caz Piurowski and Charlie Graham, offensive tackle Daron Rose, guard Jackie Claude, defensive tackles Letroy Guion, Budd Thacker and Paul Griffin, linebacker Marcus Ball and defensive ends Neefy Moffett and Justin Mincey did not travel with the team or play in the 2007 Music City Bowl game against the University of Kentucky. Not all of the missing players were in connection to the scandal. Others missed the game for injuries or other team violations.[3][3] On March 6, 2009 the NCAA imposed sanctions on the football team and nine other FSU sports in what was described as "major violations from an academic cheating scandal" [4]and the school will remain on probation through 2013. The FSU football team will be forced to vacate a yet determined amount of wins from the 2006 and 2007 seasons in which academically ineligible players were used. [5] The NCAA committee stated this case was "extremely serious" because of the large number of student-athletes involved and the fact that academic fraud is considered by the committee to be among the most egregious of NCAA rules violations.[6]It has since been determined that by the NCAA that 61 ineligible athletes competed in 10 sports.[7] The school released the statement, "We just don’t understand the sanction to vacate all wins in athletics contests in which ineligible student-athletes competed because we did not allow anyone who we knew was ineligible to compete. Our position throughout the inquiry was that as soon as we knew of a problem, they didn’t play."[8] Three days after the sanctions by the NCAA were made, Randy Spetman, Florida State’s athletic director, announced that the school would appeal the ruling on the issue of having to vacate wins saying, "We’re going to appeal. There’s no doubt we’re going to appeal." Spetman also said the school has enlisted the help of The Compliance Group, a consulting firm that specializes in assisting universities through NCAA infractions cases. [9] In this case, the NCAA considers that as soon as an athlete cheats, he or she becomes Florida State Seminoles football ineligible regardless of whether or not the school knows the infraction has occurred. If Florida State loses the appeal, it could affect as many as 14 wins for the football team, which would put coach Bobby Bowden’s quest to end his career as the alltime winningest coach in serious jeopardy. Bowden, who is entering his 34th season at Florida State, currently has 382 career wins, one shy of Penn State coach Joe Paterno.[10] On March 17, 2009 Florida State President T.K. Wetherell wrote the NCAA a letter in which he made the proposal that a blue-ribbon committee be formed to review the policy of vacating wins as a form of punishment, and that the policy be suspended from use while it is under review. The NCAA, in it’s response by President Myles Brand, said the Committee on Infractions already was reexamining its "entire penalty structure," and that any recommendations for changes would be sent to the NCAA Division I Board of Directors for consideration. Brand also wrote, "It would be arbitrary to suspend only the vacation-of-wins penalty and impractical to suspend them all." [11] On April 6, 2009 University President T.K. Wetherell wrote a letter to Samford University (formerly Howard College) in which he apologized for comments that he made about the school in reference to an editorial in a local newspaper that questioned whether the 31 wins that Bowden compiled at the Division I-AA should count on his total career wins. In a press conference on March 31, 2009 Wetherell is quoted as saying "We’ve heard Bianchi [sports columnist for the Orlando Sentinel newspaper] over there saying, ’Well, hell, 31 wins don’t count anyway because they were at some dipshit school.’ "[12] Mascot College Football Hall of Famers Individual award winners Players • • 6 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Name Ron Sellers Fred Biletnikoff Darrell Mudra Bobby Bowden Charlie Ward Total Hall of Famers Charlie Ward 1993 Chris Weinke -2000 • Charlie Ward 1993 • Charlie Ward 1993 • Charlie Ward 1993 Chris Weinke 2000 • Paul McGowan 1987 Marvin Jones 1992 • Sebastian Janikowski 1998, 1999 Graham Gano 2008 • Marvin Jones 1992 Jamal Reynolds 2000 • Deion Sanders 1988 Terrell Buckley 1991 Position Wide receiver Wide receiver Coach Coach Quarterback 5 Casey Weldon 1991 Charlie Ward 1993 Chris Weinke 2000 Florida State Seminoles football Years 1966-68 1962-64 1974-75 1976-current 1989, ’91-93 Induction 1988 1991 2000 2006 2006 • #50 - Ron Simmons, NG, 1977-80 Florida State’s All-Time Team Chosen by Athlon Sports in 2001[13] Coaches • Bobby Bowden - 1994 • Mickey Andrews - 1996 Retired numbers • • • • • • #2 - Deion Sanders, DB, 1985-88 #16 - Chris Weinke, QB, 1997-2000 #17 - Charlie Ward, QB, 1989-93 #25 - Fred Biletnikoff, WR, 1962-64 #28 - Warrick Dunn, RB, 1993-96 #34 - Ron Sellers, FL, 1966-68 Offense WR Fred Biletnikoff 1962-64 WR Ron Sellers 1966-68 WR Peter Warrick 1995-99 TE Pat Carter 1984-87 OL Jamie Dukes 1982-85 OL Clay Shiver 1992-95 OL Jason Whitaker 1996-99 OL Del Williams 1964-66 OL Pat Tomberlin 1985-88 OL Patrick McNeil 1991-94 QB Charlie Ward 1989, 91-93 QB Chris Weinke 1997-2000 RB Travis Minor 1996-99 RB Warrick Dunn 1993-95 K Sebastian Janikowski 1997-99 Defense DL Ron Simmons 1977-80 DL Jamal Reynolds 1997-2000 DL Corey Simon 1996-99 DL Andre Wadsworth 1994-97 DL Peter Boulware 1994-96 DL Reinard Wilson 1993-96 LB Paul McGowan 1984-87 LB Marvin Jones 1990-92 LB Derrick Brooks 1991-94 DB LeRoy Butler 1987-89 DB Samari Rolle 1994-97 DB Deion Sanders 1985-88 DB Terrell Buckley 1989-91 P Rohn Stark 1978-81 Current NFL players • Alex Barron - Offensive Tackle, St. Louis Rams • Anquan Boldin - Wide Receiver, Arizona Cardinals 7 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia • Lorenzo Booker - Running Back, Philadelphia Eagles • Michael Boulware - Safety, Minnesota Vikings • Derrick Brooks - Linebacker, Free Agent • Milford Brown - Offensive Guard, St. Louis Rams • Brodrick Bunkley - Defensive Tackle, Philadelphia Eagles • Jerome Carter - Defensive Back, St. Louis Rams • Marcello Church - Linebacker, Miami Dolphins • Laveranues Coles - Wide Receiver, Cincinnati Bengals • Zack Crockett - Fullback, Free Agent • Antonio Cromartie - Cornerback, San Diego Chargers • Buster Davis - Linebacker, Detroit Lions • Chauncey Davis - Defensive End, Atlanta Falcons • Chris Davis - Wide Receiver, Tennessee Titans • Darnell Dockett - Defensive Tackle, Arizona Cardinals • Warrick Dunn - Running Back, Free Agent • Todd Fordham - Offensive Tackle, Free Agent • Derrick Gibson - Safety, Free Agent • Montrae Holland - Guard, Dallas Cowboys • Chris Hope - Safety, Tennessee Titans • Dexter Jackson - Safety, Cincinnati Bengals • Sebastian Janikowski - Placekicker, Oakland Raiders • Michael Jennings - Wide Receiver, New York Giants • Brad Johnson - Quarterback, Dallas Cowboys • Travis Johnson - Defensive Tackle, Houston Texans • Greg Jones - Running Back, Jacksonville Jaguars • Walter Jones - Offensive Tackle, Seattle Seahawks • Bryant McFadden - Cornerback, Arizona Cardinals • Adrian McPherson - Quarterback, Grand Rapids Rampage (AFL) • Travis Minor - Running Back, St. Louis Rams • Eric Moore - Defensive End, St. Louis Rams • Scott Player - Punter, Free Agent • Tommy Polley - Linebacker, Free Agent • Eric Powell - Defensive End, Buffalo Bills Florida State Seminoles football • Willie Reid - Wide Receiver, Pittsburgh Steelers • Samari Rolle - Cornerback, Baltimore Ravens • Orpheus Roye - Defensive End, Pittsburgh Steelers • Corey Simon - Defensive Tackle, Free Agent • Ernie Sims - Linebacker, Detroit Lions • Greg Spires - Defensive End, Tampa Bay Buccaneers • Tra Thomas - Offensive Tackle, Philadelphia Eagles • Craphonso Thorpe - Wide Receiver, Free Agent • Lawrence Timmons - Linebacker, Pittsburgh Steelers • Javon Walker - Wide Receiver, Oakland Raiders • B.J.
