Florida State Seminoles
With
their home field at the Doak Campbell Stadium at Florida State University
in Tallahassee, - and led by legendary coach Bobby
Bowden - the Seminoles have for years remained one of the top
football teams in the NCAA.
Finishing
in the top five of the AP Poll for 14 straight years (from 1987
to 2000, when quarterback Chris Weinke won the Heisman Trophy) the
Seminoles put Florida college football on the map with stellar performances
including five national championship games between 1993 and 2001.
Now
retirted after 34 years as Florida State's head coach, Bobby Bowden claimed
more wins than any other in NCAA Division I-A history and was tied
with Penn
State's Joe Paterno as the NCAA Division I (BCS) leader with
373 career wins.
Bowden's right hand man, Jimbo Fisher, was named the Seminoles head coach for the 2010 season and lead the team to nine wins and a matchup with SEC East champion South Carolina in the Chick-fil-A Bowl with a 26-17 victory for the Seminoles. Fisher will hopefully continue to lead the team to even greater college football glory during the 2011-2012 season.
Besides producing
top college football talent, Florida State has also provided the
NFL with star performers including the likes of Deion Sanders, Terrell
Buckley, Derrick Brooksi, Walter Jones, Corey Simon, Javon Walker,
Warrick Dunn, Brad Johnson and Samari Rolle.
