Florida State University’s “sod games” and the Sod Cemetery have become legend in college football. In 1962, the Seminole football team was preparing to play the University of Georgia at Sanford Stadium. At the end of the team practice on Thursday afternoon, Dean Coyle Moore, a long-time professor and Athletic Board member, spoke to the team. He challenged them to win this difficult game away from home and “bring back some sod from between the hedges at Georgia”. On Saturday, October 20, 1962, Florida State earned a surprising 18-0 victory over Georgia. After the game, team captain Gene McDowell pulled a small piece of grass from the football field. The team presented the sod to Dean Moore at the next football practice. He and coach Bill Peterson had the sod buried on this practice field as a symbol of victory. A monument was placed to commemorate the victory and the tradition of the sod game was born. Since that time, each week before leaving for games away from home in which Florida State is the underdog, all University of Florida road games and all conference championship and bowl games. Seminole captains gather their teammates at the cemetery to tell them about this tradition. Victorious captains return with a piece of the opponent’s turf to be buried. Sod games represent the most difficult of college football’s battles. They are away from home, against the crowd, and against the odds. From the most difficult circumstances, some of the most glorious victories have been engraved.

Two-Thousand Eight Season Preview

QUARTERBACKS

• Drew Weatherford has started 33 games in his threeyear career. He will enter the season with a realistic chance to set new FSU career records for passing yards, completions, total offense and 300-yard games. • Weatherford has started double digit games in each of the last three seasons and he is the only QB on the roster with starting experience. • No QB in the FBS threw fewer interceptions than Weatherford did in 2007 as he cut his picks from 11 in 2006 to just three. • FSU has had two quarterbacks with at least 30 pass attempts in the same season every year since the 1999 National Championship. • Christian Ponder will start the season backing up Weatherford. He saw the ﬁrst game action of his career in 2007 versus Virginia Tech but he has never started a game. PRESEASON DEPTH CHART QB 11 Drew Weatherford 7 Christian Ponder -or10 D’Vontrey Richardson

RUNNING BACKS

• In 2007, Florida State’s rushing attack averaged 30 yards per game more than it did the previous season. • Antone Smith carried the ball 192 times in 2007. That was the most carries by a Seminole back since Greg Allen carried the ball 200 times in 1983. • Smith was responsible for 43% of the team’s rushes in 2007. He also had 30% of the rushes and receptions, the highest percentage since Mark Lyles in 1979. • Seddrick Holloway averaged ﬁve yards per carry and 62.5% of his carries on second and third down resulted in FSU ﬁrst downs.

NOT RETURNING

• For the ﬁrst time in school history, Florida State had three receivers go over 700 yards last season. Two of those receivers (Preston Parker and Greg Carr) will be back in 2008. • The last time Florida State returned two receivers who went over 700 yards the previous season was in 1996 when Andre Cooper and E.G. Green both came back following 1,000 yard seasons. • Parker and Carr combined to average over 125 yards receiving per game in 2007. • Six of the 10 longest pass plays last season were completed to Greg Carr. Coming into 2007 the wideout had six catches of 40 yards or more in his ﬁrst two seasons. He equaled that number last season. • Carr needs seven TD receptions to set a new career record at FSU besting Peter Warrick’s mark of 31.

OFFENSIVE LINE

• The Seminoles will return two freshman All-Americans to their offensive line for the ﬁrst time in the history of the program with Ryan McMahon and Rodney Hudson returning after stellar seasons. • No matter how the battles for open positions on the line work out, the Seminoles will start at least two players who have never started a game in their college careers. • FSU’s 2008 offensive line will be made up completely of freshman and sophomores. This is the ﬁrst time in more than 50 years that the Seminoles do not have a junior or senior offensive lineman on their roster. • The last time FSU entered a season without a senior offensive lineman was in 2003. That group featured just one returning starter (Ray Willis). • In 2007 FSU’s offensive line yielded 15% fewer sacks compared to 2006 and helped the rushing game increase its production by more than 30 yards per game.

DEFENSIVE ENDS

• Everette Brown led the team in sacks in 2007 while starting nine games. The redshirt junior led all linemen in tackles and tackles for loss. • Brown was one of the most productive sophomore defensive linemen in the nation in 2007 and he is already in the top 15 all-time at FSU in tackles for loss. • Neefy Moffett dominated at times last season starting a career high seven games. His nine tackles for loss were the third-most on the team. • Benjamin Lampkin saw his ﬁrst playing time as a defensive end in the Music City Bowl after making the move from linebacker. • Redshirt freshman Jamar Jackson is expected to contribute after losing his entire ﬁrst season to a knee injury.

LINEBACKERS

• Even with Geno Hayes’ early departure for the NFL, the linebacker position is deep and talented for FSU as Derek Nicholson is back as is the starter at middle linebacker and Dekoda Watson is back on the weakside. • Watson and Nicholson combined to start 25 games in 2007. • Florida State’s leading tackler in 2007, Nicholson returns for his senior season coming off a 99 tackle season. Nicholson was the only Seminole linebacker to start all 13 games. • Toddrick Verdell ﬁlled in for an injured Geno Hayes on the weakside versus Alabama last season and will be competing for a starting job this fall after missing the entire spring. • Kendall Smith got his ﬁrst start in the Music City Bowl on the strongside and should see plenty of playing time in 2008. • FSU has two true freshmen, Nigel Bradham and Vince Williams, who each enrolled early and went through spring football.

DEFENSIVE TACKLES

• This position was hit harder than any due to the graduation of Andre Fluellen and Letroy Guion’s decision to enter the NFL Draft after his junior year. Fluellen and Guion combined to start 13 games in 2007 despite Fluellen’s battles with injuries all season. • Budd Thacker started eight games for FSU last season and responded with career highs in tackles and tackles for loss despite missing four games due to injury. • Paul Grifﬁn did not start a game last season but his 6.5 tackles behind the line of scrimmage were tied for sixthbest on the team and third among linemen. • Justin Mincey saw a signiﬁcant increase in his playing time in 2007 as he played in 12 games and started four.

DEFENSIVE BACKS

• Last season the entire secondary returned intact. This year Florida State will need to replace free safety Roger Williams who started 29 games in his career. • The Seminoles will enter the spring with two corners who have earned All-ACC honors in their careers in Tony Carter and Patrick Robinson. • Carter and Patrick Robinson intercepted 10 passes in 2007. That was just two picks shy of the entire team total in 2006. • The last time FSU returned two players who combined for 10 picks the previous year was in 1991 when Jim Thorpe winner Terrell Buckley (6) and Errol McCorvey (4) returned. • Myron Rolle has started 23 consecutive games since his true freshman season and will enter the spring as the Seminoles’ starting rover. • Three of the four starters in the FSU secondary were named to a pre-season All-ACC team. • Darius McClure and Jamie Robinson are expected to battle for the open free safety position. Robinson made the move from corner this spring. PRESEASON DEPTH CHART RC 21 Patrick Robinson 22 Korey Mangum

SPECIALISTS

• No position lost as many key components than the FSU special teams as kicker Gary Cismesia, holder/punter Brent Moody and deep snapper Garrison Sanborn all finished their collegiate careers in 2007. • Cismesia finished his FSU career fifth all-time in scoring and he accounted for nearly 28% of all of Florida State’s points the last three seasons (283 of 1024). • Punter Graham Gano averaged 43.4 yards per punt, the best season by an FSU punter since 1996 when Sean Liss averaged 43.8 yards per punt. • Gano will enter the 2008 season with a streak of 11 straight games with a punt of at least 50 yards. • If Gano wins the place kicking job, he will be the first Seminole to handle fulltime kicking and punting duties in over 50 years.

CAREER TOTAL: 373-119-4 (.756) • 42 Years

very season Florida State’s legendary head coach finds a way to break a new record or reach what seemed to be an unreachable milestone and 2007 was no exception for Bobby Bowden. The Florida State coach is the winningest coach in the history of major college football. He enters the 2008 season with a career record of 373-119-4 for a .756 winning percentage. He leads Penn State’s Joe Paterno by one win and nine percentage points. Bowden’s winning percentage is second among active FBS coaches with 100 victories and this coming season he will become just the third coach in major college football history to ever coach 500 games in his career. In 2007 Bowden passed another truly remarkable milestone. With his victory over Maryland, he won his 300th game at Florida State University. He is one of only two coaches in major college football history to win 300 games at one school. The victory gave him seven wins and he has now won at least seven games for 26 straight seasons. Bowden also ensured himself his 31st consecutive winning season in Tallahassee. He has won 10 or more games 18 times in his 32 years in Tallahassee and over the last 20 years no program in America has a higher winning percentage than Florida State. The man who is synonymous with Seminole football took Florida State to a bowl game for the 26th consecutive season when his team played in the 2007 Music City Bowl for the first time in school history. With the invitation Bowden passed Tom Osborne and became the first coach in college football history to lead his team to 26 straight bowl games. Bowden, one of the icons of college football, is second among active coaches for winning percentage in bowl games, second for alltime bowl wins and second for bowl appearances. He is the only coach to ever lead his team to 15 consecutive New Year’s Day bowl games (1991-2005) and his Seminoles are tied for the most appearances in BCS bowl games with six. Bowden is the only coach in NCAA history to win 11 consecutive bowl games (1985-95) and the only coach ever with 14 consecutive bowl appearances (1982-95) without a loss (FSU tied Georgia 17-17 in the 1984 Citrus Bowl). Bowden and Florida State finished the 2006 season with an Emerald Bowl victory over UCLA marking the 20th bowl victory in his illustrious career. Bowden’s list of coaching accomplishments is remarkable and is headlined by his induction into the College Football Hall of Fame December 5, 2006. In a rare, yet remarkable gesture, he and Penn State’s Joe Paterno were inducted while still actively coaching. The previous rule was that a person must be retired before they can be elected in, but the rule was changed. Instead of requiring a person be retired, the National Football Foundation decided to make any active coach over 75 eligible for induction. Both Bowden and Paterno also received an even greater honor when they were presented with the organization’s very highest distinction, the Gold Medal, joining the likes of Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy and H. Norman Schwarzkopf. “I have been coaching for 54 years and married to Ann for 56 years,” Bowden said at the ceremony. “Football offers you the greatest

opportunity for a coach to succeed in any sport. I’m looking out on this audience and seeing many people who haven’t lived their lives. They have so much ahead of them, and, just as with all six of my football jobs in four different states, I know that you have to have faith, belief — I’m not talking about fate. I have been very fortunate in my profession, and this is just a wonderful award. I am truly honored.” Among his many accomplishments, one of the most amazing has to be the remarkable 14 straight top five finishes in the AP poll from 1987-2000. During that run Florida State was 152-18-1 and captured national championships in 1993 and 1999. In 1999 the team became the first and only squad to ever go wire-to-wire as the No. 1 team in the AP poll. The Seminoles also played for the title three other times during that span and since 1993 no team in the FBS has played for more national titles than FSU. Bowden has won 12 ACC Championships since FSU joined the conference in 1992 to go along with his two national championships. No other school in any BCS conference has won as many conference titles since 1992 as Bowden’s Seminoles. Included among those 12 conference titles is the inaugural ACC Championship Game victory in 2005. Over the past 16 years since Florida State joined the Atlantic Coast Conference, FSU is 108-20. The Seminoles won 100 games faster than any team in conference history and also set the league record for consecutive victories. Bowden picked up ACC Coach of the Year titles in 1993 and 1997.

So overwhelming has Bowden’s influence been on college football and, in particular, at Florida State, that the field at Doak Campbell Stadium was named after him in 2004 and a national award given by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes now bears his name. Under Bowden’s guidance, FSU has not only produced great teams but great players as well. Two Seminoles, Charlie Ward and Chris Weinke, have won the Heisman Trophy, 24 of his players have been named consensus All-Americans, three of his QB’s have won the Johnny Unitas Award and two have won the Thorpe Award, the Butkus Award, the Davey O’Brien Award and the Lombardi Award. Since Bowden took over the program his players do not just succeed in college, they also produce in the National Football League. On Opening Day 2007, 41 of Bowden’s former players were on NFL rosters, the second-most of any college. Three of his players were selected to the 2008 Pro Bowl and 28 of Bowden’s former players were selected in the first round of the NFL draft in the last 20 years. Since 1993, 100 FSU players were drafted by NFL teams and over 150 former FSU players have been drafted by the NFL since Bowden came to Tallahassee. Success on the field is not enough for Bobby Bowden as he expects his players to contribute more than just athletically. Two of Bowden’s greatest players, Warrick Dunn and Derrick Brooks, went on to not only become phenomenal pros but both were honored as the NFL’s Man of the Year. Florida State is one of just five schools to produce multiple players to win the NFL’s top award for community service. Florida State’s 2000 football class saw 93% of its members leave Tallahassee with a degree in hand and in 2006 only Duke had more football players named to the ACC Honor Roll. Nine of Bowden’s players have been awarded post graduate scholarships and since his arrival in Tallahassee a Seminole football player has been named a first team Academic All-American 10 times.

Coaching Staff “I’m being coached by a legend every day. He’s on top of his game 100 percent. He can relate to his players,” said Detroit Lion Andre Fluellen when asked about his college head coach. Bowden’s interest in the sport of football began while watching his neighborhood high school team practice just on the other side of his backyard fence in Birmingham, Alabama. His love and talent for the game began while playing with friends on the same fields everyday and later practicing with high school teammates. His knowledge of the game grew as a quarterback at Samford and from watching and listening to the legendary Bear Bryant. His skill and creativity were honed on the coaching staffs at South Georgia Junior College, FSU and West Virginia. But it has been his combination of leadership, vision, talent and magnetic personality that have flourished at Florida State, raising the program from perhaps its lowest point to the national powerhouse it is today. Bowden’s remarkable FSU career began when he took over a Seminole program in 1976 that had won just four games over the previous three seasons. It has been well chronicled how the Birmingham native left snowy West Virginia to come to Florida State and save the program. Four seasons after he first walked across the campus, he had taken FSU to within one game of a national championship posting an 11-1 record in 1979. He has remained at FSU despite offers from NFL teams and several other prestigious college football programs. Bowden’s loyalty has meant the world to Florida State University and its athletics program. Part of that was recognized by the school in 2004 with

Two-Thousand Eight Florida State University Football

Coaching Staff

the dedication of a statue of him that sits in front of the Moore Athletic Center. Bowden’s record at Florida State is 300-87-4. The totals include a 158-27-2 record in Tallahassee, 35-10-1 record at neutral sites and 107-50-1 on an opponent’s ﬁeld. He has built those numbers against some of the nation’s toughest schedules, earning respect for his team, attracting top players to his program and establishing his reputation as a competitor in the process. Bowden achieved impressive numbers in his previous coaching stops, including a 31-6 record at his alma mater Samford University between 1959 and 1962, and a 42-26 mark at West Virginia from 1970-75 making his overall career record 373-119-4. But what he has done at FSU is simply phenomenal. Florida State had been to just eight bowls in the 29 years before him. The 2007 Music City Bowl marked the Seminoles’ 29th since his arrival. He is, by far, the winningest coach ever at Florida State as his win total is greater than the previous seven Seminole head coaches combined. Part of the reason for Bowden’s success in his long run at FSU is that the elements of the job that seem to turn into chores over the years for most coaches: recruiting, speaking engagements, public functions and press responsibilities come easily for Bowden. “I feel great physically,” said Bowden who turns 79 in November. “I’ve always been a people person. I enjoy getting to know people, so the recruiting is still a lot of fun for me. I like going into a player’s home and meeting his parents and family. I don’t have any desire to slow down on all the elements outside of the actual game that some people ﬁnd hard. I understand why it grinds away at some people, but it just doesn’t on me. I guess I’ve always been able to put football in its place.” He has developed the most consistently successful program in the history of college football. FSU won more games in the decade of the 1990s than any other program. The win over Wake Forest on October 25, 2003 allowed him to become the all-time winningest major college coach. “To be honest, it doesn’t really feel like I should be there,” said Bowden at the time of the feat. “It’s not something that I sat down 40 years ago and said `you know if I coached long enough and was successful maybe I could get there’. That type of thought never entered my mind. I don’t really think about it. Maybe when I’m done I’ll look back on everything.”

While Bowden has not spent much time looking back, most of the nation has spent time looking at his program’s extraordinary success. Just imagine a college basketball program advancing to the Final Four for 14 years in a row that is what Bobby Bowden has done with the Seminole football team. FSU set an NCAA record with 14 straight top five finishes and the 2001 Orange Bowl was the Seminole’s third straight national title game. Bobby Bowden is proud of his two national championships, his place among the all-time greats and a football program that is the model for the entire country. But he has always pointed to the fact that there are more important things in life. Rising above Bowden’s coaching accomplishments, are his credentials as a man. He makes time for charity and to give to his church. He has never passed an admiring child without a wink and a smile. He greets total strangers. He listens and he cares. His personality and charm are bigger than life and he has become somewhat of a folk hero. An engaging speaker, Bowden is constantly in demand and most free evenings will find him on the speaking circuit. His off-season travel schedule would exhaust anyone. Sunday morning will usually find him at the pulpit of a church somewhere in the south. Outside of football, Bowden has an intense interest in World War II history and he is a voracious reader on the subject. He traced his ancestry to parts of Germany and has visited the country several times. What Bobby Bowden means to Florida State University off the playing field cannot be measured. Respect, sincerity, class, honesty, charisma, charm and humor are just some of the words that describe and define this man better than wins, losses or coaching records.

Bowden was an outstanding football player at Woodlawn High School in Birmingham and went on to Alabama as a freshman quarterback, fulﬁlling a lifelong dream to play for the Crimson Tide. He lasted one semester in Tuscaloosa before high school sweetheart Ann Estock lured him back to Birmingham. They soon married and Bobby transferred to Howard College in Birmingham. The two celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in the same year (1999) that FSU won its second national championship and Bowden coached his only undefeated team, which was the ﬁrst team ever to go wire-to-wire as the AP No. 1 in college football history. Bowden served as an assistant football coach and head track coach at Howard College (now Samford) from 1954-55. He left his alma mater to serve as Athletics Director and head coach at South Georgia Junior College from 1956-58. He returned to Samford as head coach from 1959-62. He joined the Florida State coaching staff under head coach Bill Peterson as wide receivers coach from 1963-65. During that time, he coached Seminole receiver T.K. Wetherell who is now president of FSU. Bowden moved on to West Virginia, serving as offensive coordinator from 1966-69 before taking over as the Mountaineers’ head coach from 1970-1975. He was named FSU’s head coach in January 1976.

The nation can follow son Tommy’s career as head coach at Clemson as well as Terry, who is a college football analyst. The Bowden’s oldest son, Steve, co-wrote a book entitled “The Bowden Way” with his dad that hit the Wall Street Journal’s best seller list. Youngest son, Jeff, spent 13 seasons working side-by-side with his father on the FSU staff. His oldest daughter Robyn is married to Atlanta area high school football coach Jack Hines and his youngest daughter Ginger is an attorney.

FSU’S NEXT HEAD COACH Florida State University announced on December 10, 2007 an agreement in principle for a succession plan that elevates offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher to head football coach when Bobby Bowden retires.

“We believe this plan insures that our football program is stable and competitive at the very highest level now and in the future,” interim AD Bill Proctor said. Bowden praised the plan, saying: “I’ve known Jimbo Fisher for a long time. I’ve followed his career at several different levels. I’ve seen him succeed everywhere he has been. Since he’s been with us, I’ve seen the elements in him that it takes to be a head football coach. Apparently, our administration has seen the same thing. “I think Jimbo’s willingness to wait here while being chased for every job available speaks volumes about both him and this program,” Bowden said. “Florida State is a great university and I think we’ve taken steps to keep our program among the very ﬁnest in the country.” “I am humbled and honored by this announcement,” Fisher said. “I said when I came here that I wanted to learn under the best coach in the history of college football and I’m doing that.

“I’m happy and excited,” he said. “Is there anything more valuable than spending time coaching under Bobby Bowden and with the assistant coaches that we have here at Florida State? Bobby Bowden is still the head coach and I’m lucky enough to still be the offensive coordinator and the whole staff is out there right now making sure we sign players that want to compete for championships.”

2007 GAME RECAPS

CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — First-time starter Cullen Harper threw two touchdown passes in Clemson’s 24-18 victory over the No. 19

Seminoles on Monday night. Harper and the Tigers came out throwing to take a 21-0 lead before the game was 17 minutes old -- and brought their coach, Tommy, his third straight win over father Bobby’s Seminoles. Florida State rallied from 24-3 down in the second half of the season opener for both teams. When Drew Weatherford hit Richard Goodman for a 15-yard TD pass with 11:40 left, the Seminoles trailed by 6. Weatherford and the Seminoles got the ball back three more times after that, but could not score. “It looked like stage fright. We were running a new offense but I thought we grasped it better than that. We were bad,” Bobby Bowden said. Clemson fans rushed the field and the collapsible goal posts came down after Weatherford’s final pass fell to the ground. But officials chose to review the play, moving orange-clad fans out of the way. Finally, they were told the play stood and the game was indeed over. Florida State had a rough first half, managing only one first down and 62 yards. The Seminoles, however, found their rhythm in the second half. Antone Smith had a 49-yard run to Clemson’s 1, then followed with the score that drew them to 24-11. Goodman’s TD catch tightened things up even more. But Weatherford and the Seminoles couldn’t sustain the rally. They got to Clemson’s 31 with 3 minutes left. But Florida State’s junior quarterback threw three incompletions and was taken down from behind by defensive lineman Philip Merling. Harper was 14-of-24 for 160 yards and no interceptions. Davis gained 102 yards on 18 carries. The victory closed Tommy within a win of his father after the ninth meeting of college football’s best known family feud. Bobby’s Seminoles won the first four games in the series by a combined score of 160-79. Tommy won four of the past five, including the last three at Death Valley. Bobby Bowden said he can’t be certain the Seminoles will rebound from their fifth loss in their last eight games. “You never know. The season’s too young,” he said. Clemson got things going with a reverse to Jacoby Ford that went for 34 yards to Florida State’s 23. Three plays later, Harper found Linthicum for an 11-yard touchdown pass. The Tigers were at it again moments later when linebacker Nick Watkins recovered Preston Parker’s fumble. Davis, who gained 1,187 yards a year ago, showed off his power on the next play, breaking two tackles and cutting hard left near the goal line for his 29-yard touchdown and a 14-0 lead. Two series later, Harper hooked up with Kelly for a 41-yard touchdown pass.

GAME NOTES

GIVE ‘EM TWO The safety in the third quarter was Florida State’s first since it picked up one against Virginia last season. Buster Davis tackled Jameel Sewell for a five-yard loss in the third quarter of FSU’s 33-0 victory. THREE TRUE FRESHMEN MAKE THEIR DEBUT Florida State had three true freshmen play in tonight’s game. Rodney Hudson got the start at left guard in his first collegiate game. Kendall Smith got into the game on special teams. Also making his debut on special teams was fellow linebacker Maurice Harris. SMITH ON THE RUN Antone Smith’s 49-yard scamper in the third quarter that set up his one-yard touchdown run was his longest in eight games. The junior set a career high with an 80-yard touchdown run against Duke on October 14. The TD against Clemson was Smith’s first since he scored versus Virginia. Smith rushed for 90 yards against Clemson, his best effort since a career-high 137 against Rice last season (Sept. 23). GOODMAN MAKES HIS WAY INTO THE ENDZONE FOR THE FIRST TIME After three seasons as a reserve, Richard Goodman made his first major contribution to the offense in the fourth quarter. The junior caught his first career touchdown pass with 11:40 remaining in the game. The 15-yard reception is the second-longest of his career, coming in just behind a 22-yard reception against Troy last season (Sept. 9). The touchdown pass was Florida State’s first in a season opener since Chris Rix hit Chris Davis for a seven-yard score in the 2003 game at North Carolina (Aug. 30). WEATHERFORD OPENS 2007 WITH A CAREER-LONG RUN The 22-yard run by Drew Weatherford on the first play of the game was the longest rush of his career. His previous high was a 17-yarder versus Maryland on October 29, 2005. MOFFETT AND WATSON COMBINE FOR FSU’S FIRST TURNOVER OF 2007 The fumble recovery by sophomore Dekoda Watson was the first of his career. His recovery was the product of a strip by defensive end Neefy Moffett. It was the second forced fumble of Moffett’s career. He also forced one versus Rice in 2006. He recovered that fumble himself. LARGEST HALFTIME DEFICIT VERSUS CLEMSON Florida State’s 21-point deficit is its largest at the half in the series with Clemson. Prior to this game, the largest Tiger lead heading into the lockerroom was 18 points (28-10) during the 1989 game. The last time Florida State was down more than 21 points at the half was against Florida on November 25, 1995, when the Gators led 28-6. FSU lost that game 35-24.

Two-Thousand Seven Review TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Drew Weatherford threw for 332 yards and three touchdowns as Florida State rallied from an early two-touchdown deficit and held off UAB 34-24 on Saturday. The Seminoles fell out of the Top 25 after losing Monday at Clemson and found themselves in a hole to UAB, which has lost nine straight but was up 17-3 lead in the first half. Weatherford hit a streaking Richard Goodman in stride for a 50-yard touchdown on the final play of the third period that gave the Seminoles a 31-24 lead and Gary Cismesia’s 40-yard field goal two minutes later finally gave Florida State some breathing room at 34-24. Florida State didn’t get its first lead, 24-17, until late in the third quarter on Marcus Sim’s 1-yard TD run, but UAB countered on Joseph Webb’s one-handed catch on a 16-yard pass from Sam Hunt to tie the game at 24. Tight end Charlie Graham and wideout Greg Carr also caught TD passes for Florida State (1-1, 0-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), which totaled 520 yards offense. Although the offensive statistics were virtually even at the half, UAB held a 17-10 lead on the strength of Will Dunbar’s 21-yard interception return touchdown just five minutes into the game that made it 10-0. After a 28-yard field goal by Cismesia, Hunt’s 4-yard scoring scramble early in the second quarter boosted UAB into its 17-3 lead. UAB (0-2) has not won since a 35-29 win over Memphis last Oct. 7. Florida State lost starting tailback Antone Smith with a concussion midway through the third period and his status for next Saturday’s game at Colorado was not immediately known.

GAME NOTES

SEMINOLES GRINDING IT OUT ON THE GROUND Florida State’s running game has seen a resurgence. For the third game in a row, the Seminoles have produced at least 100 yards rushing as they went for 188 against UAB. The total is Florida State’s highest since it went for 287 against Rice last season (September 23). Through the first two games, Florida State is averaging 151 rushing yards per game, compared to just 96.5 in 2006. Florida State had three running backs go for more than 30 yards against UAB - Antone Smith (62), Jamaal Edwards (45) and Marcus Sims (34) - which it hasn’t had since last year’s Maryland game. GOODMAN CROSS THE GOAL LINE AGAIN After scoring his first career touchdown Monday at Clemson, junior Richard Goodman scored six points again versus UAB. He is the second FSU receiver to catch a touchdown catch in consecutive games in the last four contests. Greg Carr rounded out the 2006 season by hauling in scores against Western Michigan, at Florida and against UCLA in the Emerald Bowl. WEATHERFORD MOVES INTO TOP TEN LIST ON FSU TD CHARTS With his 50-yard scoring strike to Richard Goodman to start the fourth quarter, signal caller Drew Weatherford has tied Chip Ferguson for 10th in FSU history with 34 touchdown passes. His third touchdown of the night - which was one of his career-high of four set at Duke in 2006 - moved him past Peter Tom Willis, who occupied the No. 11 spot with 33 TDs. PARKER HAS THE ALL-AROUND GAME Wide receiver Preston Parker accounted for 172 yards through three different mediums. He caught a career-high 89 yards on four catches. In the special teams department he returned six punts for 74 yards, averaging 12.3 yards per return. He even got in on the ground game as he had one rush for nine yards. WHY WALK WHEN YOU CAN TAKE THE CARR Wide receiver Greg Carr hauled in 82 yards against UAB to give him two games with at least 80 yards receiving in his last three outings (88 vs. UCLA). His touchdown catch in the third quarter was the 22nd of his career, which tied him with Duke’s Corey Thomas for 12th in ACC history. Within the Florida State ranks, he needs one more to pull into a tie for fifth place with FSU Hall of Famer Ron Sellers. WEATHERFORD SPREADING THE WEALTH Quarterback Drew Weatherford completed passes to eight different receivers against UAB. He has completed passes to at least seven different receivers in each of his last three games. Last season he twice completed passes to nine different receivers (Duke & Tory).

Two-Thousand Seven Review

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — The Seminoles beat Colorado 16-6 Saturday night behind Gary Cismesia’s three field goals and a defense that nearly handed the Buffaloes their first shutout in almost two decades. The Buffaloes were in danger of getting shut out for the first time since Nov. 12, 1988, at Nebraska, until Cody Hawkins found tight end Tyson DeVree in the back of the end zone on fourth-and-10 from the Seminoles 11 with 3:40 remaining. That was the latest the Buffs had scored in their 225-game scoring streak, the longest in the Big 12. The Buffs’ last whitewash at home was a 28-0 loss to Oklahoma on Nov. 15, 1986. After the score, the Buffs went for 2, but Hawkins’ throw was high, and Richard Goodman recovered the onside kick for Florida State, which avoided its first 1-2 start since 1989 thanks to its stellar defense. Colorado’s scrappy defense allowed Antone Smith to burst through the line with nobody deep to help. The result was a 36yard touchdown run that helped Florida State take a 10-0 halftime lead -- the first time the ‘Noles took a lead into the locker room since last Nov. 18 against Western Michigan. The Seminoles thwarted the Buffs by using their safeties to shut down the run and relying on their speedy cornerbacks to take away Hawkins’ downfield receiving targets. Colorado finished with minus-27 yards on 25 carries and Hawkins threw 53 times, completing 34 of them for 306 yards with one TD and two interceptions. Smith gained 66 yards on 19 carries and Drew Weatherford was 8-for-18 for 126 yards, no touchdowns and three sacks, and the Seminoles never found any sort of rhythm against the stout Colorado defense.

GAME NOTES

SEMINOLES DEFENSE PITCHES FIRST HALF SHUTOUT Florida State held Colorado scoreless in the first half to mark the first time this season the Seminoles have held their opponent scoreless in the first 30 minutes and the first time since FSU held Virginia scoreless on Nov. 4, 2006 in a 33-0 victory. Before tonight’s first half shutout, FSU opponents were averaging 20.5 points in the first half of the first two games of the 2007 season. SEMINOLES’ SCORELESS STREAK INTACT Florida State’s shutout of Colorado in tonight’s first half marks the third consecutive quarter and a total of 46:16 that the Seminoles have held their opponents without a point. The last score the Seminoles’ defense allowed came with 1:16 left in the third quarter of last Saturday’s 34-24 victory over UAB. NICHOLSON HITS CAREER HIGH FOR TACKLES IN THE THIRD QUARTER Junior linebacker Derek Nicholson reached 10 tackles by the seven minute mark of the third quarter – already establishing a career-high for a single game. His 10 tackles through the first seven minutes of the third quarter gave the Seminoles’ leading tackler 25 for the season which already gives him a single-season career-high. Nicholson had 21 total tackles as a true freshman in 2005. Nicholson finished the game with a game-high 11 tackles and had now led the team in two straight games and three for his career. CARR GRABS LONGEST CATCH OF SEASON Junior wide receiver Greg Carr caught a 45-yard pass from Drew Weatherford in the third quarter of tonight’s game. The catch was Carr’s longest of the season and the second-longest completion of the season for Weatherford. SEMINOLES HOLD COLORADO TO NEGATIVE RUSHING YARDS Florida State’s defense limited Colorado to -27 yards rushing in tonight’s game. It marked the first time the Seminoles allowed minus rushing yards since allowing -24 yards rushing to UAB on Sept. 18, 2004. The Seminoles won that game, 34-7.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Xavier Lee, the 6-4, 235-pound redshirt junior with a cannon arm, came off the bench Saturday to throw a pair of touchdown passes to De’Cody Fagg and lead Florida State to a 21-14 victory over No.22 Alabama. Lee, who entered the game in the second quarter, hit Fagg with a 7-yard pass for the game’s first touchdown on the opening drive of the second half. The two then teamed up on a 70-yard TD pass with 4:46 left to give the Seminoles a 21-7 lead. Lee completed 12 of 19 passes for 224 yards after making his first appearance of the year and ran for a game-high 59 yards in what began as a defensive struggle for both teams. Florida State (3-1) gave Bowden, who grew up in Birmingham, Ala., his 369th coaching win in his first game against Alabama. Antone Smith scored on a 5-yard run to give Florida State a 14-0 lead early in the fourth quarter. Alabama (3-2) cut the lead to 14-7 with 5:04 left on DJ Hall’s leaping grab in the back of the end zone on a pass from Wilson, who added a 17-yard TD pass to Keith Brown with 1:06 left. It was Florida State’s first victory in four tries against Alabama in the first meeting between the schools since 1974 when Alabama won 8-7 by scoring a safety and field goal in the final 1:27. The 85,412 fans at Saturday’s game were the most to see a game in Jacksonville, exceeding attendance at the 2004 Super Bowl game or any of the annual Georgia-Florida rivalry games.

GAME NOTES

LONGEST PLAY IN ALMOST A YEAR De’Cody Fagg’s 70-yard touchdown catch from Xavier Lee in the fourth quarter is the longest play of the season for the Seminoles. It’s the Seminoles’ longest offensive play of the year and the longest since Antone Smith had an 80-yard run against Duke on October 14, 2006. It’s the longest passing play since Lorenzo Booker hauled in a 73-yard catch from Drew Weatherford against NC State last season on October 5th. BROWN SETTING UP CAMP IN THE ALABAMA BACKFIELD Florida State defensive end Everette Brown was a fixture in the Alabama backfield in the second half of today’s game. The sophomore had a personal-best two sacks against the Crimson Tide as part of his four total tackles. In addition, Brown caused the fumble that set up Florida State’s second score of the game. It was the first forced fumble of his career as well as the first fumble recovery by Letroy Guion, who pounced on the ball. FAGG TIES CAREER TOTAL WITH A PAIR OF TOUCHDOWN CATCHES Coming into today’s game, wide receiver De’Cody Fagg had only caught a pair of touchdown passes in his career – 2006 vs. Duke & 2005 vs. Florida – but he equaled that against the Crimson Tide. Prior to the 70-yard scoring strike from Xavier Lee in the fourth quarter, Fagg’s longest catch of his career was a 53-yard reception against the Citadel (Sept. 10, 2005). His 95 yards receiving is his highest output in two seasons since he hauled in a career-high 113 yards versus the Citadel. CARR REACHES THE CENTURY MARK FOR FIRST TIME IN 2007 With 107 yards in today’s game, junior wide receiver Greg Carr is the first Florida State receiver to haul in 100 yards this season. It’s his first 100-yard game since he caught four passes – including three for touchdowns – for 100 yards against Duke last season on October 14th. For his career, Carr now has five 100-yard receiving games. In fact, Carr is the first Seminole this year to amass 100 yards on either the ground or through the air. Prior to tonight’s game, the 2007 single-game season high for a receiver was 89 yards by Preston Parker against UAB. SEMINOLES GET FIRST RANKED VICTORY SINCE START OF 2006 Prior to the 21-14 victory over Alabama today, Florida State had not beaten a ranked opponent since the start of the 2006 season. The Seminoles opened the 2006 campaign with a 13-10 triumph over No. 12 Miami. After the Miami win, Florida State lost it next two games against ranked foes – 30-0 vs. No. 18 Wake Forest and 21-14 vs. No. 4 Florida. The Seminoles last victory over a ranked team away from home was a 23-19 triumph against No. 5 Virginia Tech in Jacksonville during the inaugural ACC Championship game.

DEFENSE PITCHING A SHUTOUT Florida State defense has been outstanding the last two games. Dating back to the last quarter of the UAB game, the Seminole defense has only surrendered one touchdown in its last eight quarters. Colorado scored a touchdown with 58 seconds remaining in the contest to thwart the Florida State shutout. Florida State has not been shut out in the ﬁrst half since the end of the 2006 season. Florida held the Seminoles scoreless through the ﬁrst 30 minutes of play in the November 25, 2006 contest.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Michael Ray Garvin’s 43-yard interception return for a touchdown snapped a halftime tie and sparked Florida State to a 27-10 win Saturday over North Carolina State for its fourth straight win. A track All American who finished sixth in the 100 meters at the NCAA finals and ran a leg on Florida State’s championship 400-meter relay team, Garvin gave Florida State a 17-10 lead early in the third quarter with his first interception of the season. Daniel Evans, who threw three TD passes in N.C. State’s 24-20 victory last year over the Seminoles, was intercepted three times Saturday -- once at the end of the half that killed a Wolfpack drive that had reached Florida State’s 26. Xavier Lee, making his first start of the season at quarterback, ran 2 yards for the Seminoles first touchdown 2:11 into the game, three plays after a 58-yard pass to Greg Carr on the game’s first play. Carr later caught a 40-yard touchdown pass early in the fourth quarter to give the Seminoles a 24-10 lead. The Seminoles (4-1,1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) snapped a string of eight straight losses against Atlantic Division rivals while N.C. State has now lost a dozen straight game against Bowl Subdivision (formerly 1-A) schools. Although N.C. State (1-5, 0-3 ACC) led 10-7 in the first quarter, it was again plagued by four turnovers -- boosting its number to 21 in coach Tom O’Brien’s first year at the school. It was Florida State coach Bobby Bowden’s 370th career coaching win, the most in major college football. It was an emotional game for Seminole assistant coach Chuck Amato, who returned to Bowden’s side earlier this year after he was fired by his N.C. State alma mater last November following seven seasons as head coach. One of the players Amato recruited, sophomore running back Jamelle Eugene, ran for 101 yards on 14 carries and caught 5 passes for another 30 yards to lead the Wolfpack offense. The game was delayed late in the third quarter for 49 minutes because of a lightning threat. Florida State led 17-10 when the players were removed from the field. ACC sideline official, Ernest Benson, fainted on the sideline in the second quarter and was taken to a local hospital where he was treated for dehydration and released.

GAME NOTES

DEFENSE PITCHES SECOND HALF SHUTOUT Florida State’s defense in the second half of games has been absolutely spectacular this season. For the second time this year (Clemson), the Seminoles pitched a second-half shutout. NC State was limited to just 64 yards of total offense in the second half (42 rushing, 22 passing) and only crossed the 50-yard line twice. Only once this year has Florida State allowed double-digit points in the second half and FSU is limiting foes to 5.4 points per game in the second half. SECONDARY STEPS UP BIG FOR SEMINOLES The Florida State defensive backfield came up with some crucial plays to halt a pair of potential scoring drives by the Wolfpack. Cornerback JR Bryant collected his first career interception at the Florida State 16-yard line in the third quarter. Michael Ray Garvin’s interception return for a touchdown broke a 10-10 tie in the third quarter. Fellow corner Patrick Robinson ended a potential NC State scoring drive late in the first half with his pick at the FSU eight-yard line. LEE PUTS TOGETHER ANOTHER STRONG PERFORMANCE BEHIND CENTER After coming off the bench to lead FSU to victory last week, quarterback Xavier Lee got his first start of the year against the Wolfpack. He produced a turnover free game, going 16-of-28 for 257 yards and a touchdown. The 257 yards are the most Lee has thrown since he totaled a career-high 286 yards against Maryland last season on October 28, 2006. The start was just the fourth of Lee’s career and he evened his record to 2-2. He beat Virginia last season, but lost to Maryland and Wake Forest. MICHAEL RAY GARVIN GETS FIRST PICK-SIX The first interception of the season for Michael Ray Garvin was a memorable one as it was his first ever interception for a touchdown. The 43-yard interception is the second of his career. The Upper Saddle River, N.J., native picked off his first pass last season in the season-opener against Miami to thwart the Hurricanes’ final drive. It’s the first interception return for a touchdown by a Seminole since Tony Carter picked off UCLA’s Patrick Cowen in the Emerald Bowl and raced 86 yards for the score. NC STATE MISCELLANEOUS Greg Carr wasn’t the only Florida State receiver to have a good game. Sophomore Preston Parker pulled in a career-high six catches for 61 yards … Leading the defensive effort for the Seminoles was Geno Hayes as he tallied a team-high 10 tackles. It was his highest output since he set a career high of 12 versus UCLA in the Emerald Bowl … The three interceptions against NC State are the most since FSU picked off a trio of balls versus Troy last season (September 9) … For the second game in a row, defensive end Everette Brown, who started the fifth game of his career, recorded a pair of tackles for a loss. He needs just a half tackle for a loss to break into the FSU top 20.

Two-Thousand Seven Review

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — Riley Skinner threw a 35-yard touchdown pass to Kenneth Moore in the fourth quarter to lead Wake Forest past No. 21 Florida State 24-21 on Thursday night. Skinner completed 19 of 27 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns for the Demon Deacons (4-2, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), who rallied in the second half to beat the Seminoles (4-2, 1-2). Skinner led the Demon Deacons 82 yards in nine plays, converting three third downs during their game-winning drive. The biggest came when Skinner sidestepped a pass rush, stepped forward in the pocket and found Moore, who had a step on cornerback Jamie Robinson at the goal line, for the easy score that put Wake Forest up 21-14 with 6:41 remaining. Florida State gave the ball right back to Wake Forest on the first play of its ensuing drive, when Chip Vaughn intercepted Xavier Lee’s deep pass at the 26. The Demon Deacons milked the clock and set up Sam Swank’s 48-yard field goal with 1:40 to play that made it a 10-point game. Lee scored on a 17-yard run with 17 seconds left to draw the Seminoles within 24-21, but Wake Forest recovered an onside kick to seal it. Josh Adams rushed 18 times for 140 yards, including an 83-yard touchdown run, and caught a scoring pass. Micah Andrews ran hard as his relief, gaining 57 tough yards in helping spark the comeback. Wake Forest’s defense in the first half allowed two big plays that set up the Seminoles’ two scoring drives, then shut them down after halftime. The Demon Deacons forced five second-half punts, intercepted two passes and allowed 105 total yards after the break - with a good chunk coming after Swank’s late kick. Florida State’s rushing offense never could get going, finishing with 47 yards on 24 carries. Lee finished 24-of-45 for 283 yards and two touchdowns for the Seminoles, who led 14-7 at halftime. Wake Forest moved 80 yards in nine plays late in the third quarter to force a 14-14 tie - a drive that started when Alphonso Smith intercepted Lee in the end zone. Skinner capped the drive with a nifty play in which he faked a handoff to Adams, deked like he would roll right and instead reversed field and flipped to the wide-open tailback for a 6-yard score. Florida State rallied from an early deficit by using two big plays to set up short touchdowns passes. Lee hit Parker for 58 yards and then hooked up again three plays later from 6 yards out - the first TD of the receiver’s career - that snapped a fivequarter scoreless streak against Wake Forest. Later, Carr outjumped Smith on a 50-yard gain down the right sideline, then did it again in the left corner of the end zone to make it 14-7 43 seconds before halftime. Adams had given Wake Forest a 7-0 lead midway through the second quarter when he took a handoff at his own 17, stutter-stepped through the line and burst down the right sideline for the fourth-longest touchdown run in school history and the longest run allowed by Florida State in more than a decade.

GAME NOTES

CARR SET CAREER-HIGH FOR CATCHES In addition to moving up the Florida State and ACC touchdown list, Greg Carr had his best night catching the ball as well. The eight receptions by the junior tonight is a career best. Prior to tonight, his season-high was five against Alabama and his career-best was a half-dozen versus Duke on October 22, 2005. In the last three games, Carr has 17 catches. The eight receptions are the most by a Seminole since Chris Davis had eight against Maryland on October 28, 2006. With 108 yards, Carr is the first player since Snoop Minnis in 2000 (Clemson, Wake Forest, Florida) to post three-straight 100-yard games. It is also his second 100-yard game against the Deacons. Here are Carr’s 100-yard games. DEFENSE CAUSES THREE TURNOVERS FOR THE SECOND GAME IN A ROW For the second game in a row, Florida State’s defense did a great job of taking the ball away. The Seminoles caused three turnovers for the second game in a row as they picked off quarterback Riley Skinner twice and recovered one of two forced fumbles. Last week against NC State the Seminoles picked off a trio of passes. The six turnovers in the last two games are as many as the Seminoles forced in the first four games combined. PARKER CROSSES THE 100-YARD PLATEAU FOR FIRST TIME IN HIS CAREER Wide receiver Preston Parker had a career-high against the Demon Deacons. In the second quarter he caught the first touchdown pass of his career. His 23-yard reception on Florida State’s fourthquarter scoring drive gave him his first career 100-yard receiving night. His previous career-high was 89 against UAB. He fell one reception short of tying his career high of six set last week versus NC State. PATRICK ROBINSON GETS SECOND INTERCEPTION IN AS MANY WEEKS After getting his first career interception last week against NC State, sophomore Patrick Robinson got his second interception versus Wake Forest. The pick was the seventh in the last four games - which is more than halfway to last year’s season total of 12 - for the Seminoles and the third game out of the last four that Florida State has had an interception.

Two-Thousand Eight Florida State University Football

Two-Thousand Seven Review TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Colin McCarthy returned a fumble 27 yards for Miami’s second touchdown in 11 seconds late in the fourth quarter and the Hurricanes beat Florida State 37-29 Saturday. For the first time since 1977, the rivalry game that helped decide so many national titles during the 1980s and 90s was played with neither team ranked. Fittingly, the Seminoles and ‘Canes combined for nine turnovers, five by FSU. Minutes before Miami’s two quick touchdowns, the Hurricanes (5-3, 2-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) appeared to have lost their best chance to get the win when Kirby Freeman was stopped for no gain on a fourth-and-1 at the Florida State 1 with 5:29 left and the ‘Canes trailing 29-24. But Freeman, who replaced injured Kyle Wright in the first half, drove Miami 83 yards in a 1 1/2 minutes to take the lead 30-29 on a 13-yard pass to Dedrick Epps with 1:15 left. Xavier Lee, who was intercepted twice, then fumbled after being hit by Miami’s Teraz McCray, and McCarthy ran it in for the clincher. Lee threw two interceptions and lost two fumbles for Florida State (4-3, 1-3). He completed 14 of 32 passes for 208 yards in his third start this season. The Seminoles wasted five field goals by Gary Cismesia and Antone Smith’s first 100-yard game of the season. Smith finished with 114 yards on 22 carries. Cismesia’s fourth field goal, from 45 yards, gave Florida State a 26-24 lead late in the third quarter of the back-and-forth contest and he added another from the same distance early in the fourth quarter for the 29-24 lead. The Hurricanes had grabbed a 24-23 lead on a trick play midway through the third quarter when place-kicker Francesco Zampogna took an over-the-shoulder toss from his holder and found tight end DajLeon Farr on a 26-yard scoring pass. Wright, who hurt his left ankle, was 6 of 10 for 88 yards, but threw an interception that put Florida State into a 17-14 lead. Toddrick Verdell’s 45-yard touchdown run was followed by a Cismesia field goal that put the Seminoles ahead 20-17 at halftime. Miami also scored two quick touchdowns in the first quarter to grab an early 14-3 lead. The Hurricanes went ahead 7-3 lead on Wright’s 1-yard run on a scoring drive highlighted by Wright’s 64-yard third down pass to Darnell Jenkins. Greg Cooper then added a 2-yard TD run set up by a fumble by Florida State’s Smith. Florida State coach Bobby Bowden, who has 370 career coaching wins, is now just one ahead of Penn State’s Joe Paterno.

GAME NOTES

FLORIDA STATE AND MIAMI HAVE MOST PROLIFIC FIRST HALF IN EIGHT YEARS Over the last few years, the Florida State-Miami game has been a defensive battle. The 37 combined points scored by the two teams this afternoon are the most since the 1999 game. The Seminoles and Hurricanes went into the locker room tied 21-21 on October 9, 1999. Florida State went on to win that game 31-21 on its way to the National Championship. In addition, the 37 points are already more points that have been scored in any Florida State-Miami game since a 27-28 Miami win on October 12, 2002. ROBINSON PICKS OFF A PASS FOR THIRD-STRAIGHT GAME For the third straight game, sophomore cornerback Patrick Robinson has come up with an interception after his 31-yard interception return in the second half. The pick makes the Miami native the first Seminole to intercept a pass in three-straight games since Pat Watkins did it against UAB, Clemson and UNC in 2004. SMITH CROSS THE 1,000-YARD MARK FOR HIS CAREER The 36-yard rush by running back Antone Smith on the first play of the second half put him over the 1,000-yard mark for his career. He came into the game with 966 yards and finished the game with 114 yards on 22 carries for a career total of 1,080. The 114 yards marked his first 100-yard rushing game of the season and just the second of his career. The Pahokee, Fla., native first did it with 137 yards against Rice last season (September 23, 2006). CISMESIA TIES SINGLE-GAME RECORD FOR FIELD GOALS AND PERSONAL POINTS MARK Gary Cismesia tied his career-high, which is also an FSU singlegame record, with five field goals in today’s game. In 2004, Cismesia’s freshman year, he hit five field goals (23), (29), (27), (40), (43) vs. Duke in a 29-7 win on November 6th. Sebastian Janikowski also holds the record vs. NC State in 1999 and vs. Maryland in 1998. Bill Capece was the first to set the mark with five field goals vs. Pittsburgh in 1980. He added a pair of PATs to tie his career-high of 17 points, which he originally set against the Blue Devils, and one short of the FSU single-game record.

Two-Thousand Eight Florida State University Football

Two-Thousand Seven Review TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Preston Parker caught a touchdown pass and scored on an end around Saturday to help Florida State end a two-game losing streak with a 25-6 victory over Duke, handing the Blue Devils’ their 22nd straight Atlantic Coast Conference loss. After going more than five quarters without an offensive touchdown, the Seminoles made it to the end zone six minutes into the third quarter when Parker raced 9 yards with a short sideline pass from Drew Weatherford, giving Florida State a 16-0 lead. Florida State, which plays next Saturday at undefeated Boston College, led 9-0 at halftime on three field goals by Gary Cismesia. Parker scored his second TD late in the third quarter on a 14-yard run to make the score 22-0. After Cismesia kicked his fourth field goal, Duke (1-7, 0-5 ACC) avoided a shutout when Thaddeus Lewis lofted a 3-yard pass to a wide-open Brandon King in the right front corner of the end zone with 8:07 left. Florida State (5-3, 2-3 ACC) rolled up a season-high 534 yards and 30 first downs while holding Duke to 222 yards and 9 first downs. The Blue Devils managed only 49 yards and two first downs in the first half. The win was Bobby Bowden’s 371st coaching victory and gave him a two-game cushion over Penn State’s Joe Paterno, whose team lost Saturday to Ohio State. Weatherford, making his first start in four games after being benched in favor of Xavier Lee, completed 35 of 47 for 339 yards despite not having junior wide receiver Greg Carr, who missed the game with a wrist injury. Carr, who has 24 career touchdown catches, had caught six TD catches in two previous games against the Blue Devils. But De’Cody Fagg took up the slack with 9 catches for 134 yards and Richard Goodman had 11 catches for 73 yards, but injured his right ankle late in the fourth quarter. Parker had 8 catches for 89 yards and Antone Smith tacked on 146 yards on 23 carries, but was also knocked out of the contest late with a left ankle sprain. Florida State’s Patrick Robinson had an interception for the fourth straight game.

GAME NOTES

CAREER NIGHT GETS SMITH SECOND 100-YARD GAME IN A ROW Tonight was the most productive game of Antone Smith’s Seminole career as he posted personal-bests of 23 carries for 146 yards. Coming into the game his career high was 137 yards against Rice (September 23, 2006) and 22 carries last week against Miami. After 114 yards versus the Hurricanes, he is the first Seminole to record back-to-back 100-yard games since Leon Washington did in 2004 with 153 yards vs. North Carolina and 164 yards vs. Syracuse. PARKER SCORES ONE ON THE GROUND AND ONE THROUGH THE AIR Both of Florida State’s touchdowns came from wide receiver Preston Parker, but they came through two different means. His first score was a nine-yard pass from Drew Weatherford followed by a 14-yard run. He finished the game with 89 yards through the air on a career-high eight catches and 27 on the ground. Parker is the first Seminole to score a rushing and receiving touchdown since Nick Maddox did it against Duke on September 1, 2001. Maddox had a 51-yard run to go along with a 26-yard pass from Chris Rix. ROBINSON GRABS ANOTHER INTERCEPTION For the fourth game in a row, sophomore cornerback Patrick Robinson has come up with an interception. His four picks this season ties last year’s leader Roger Williams and equals Antonio Cromartie (2004) and Pat Watkins (2004) for the most interceptions since Tay Cody had six in 2000. As a team, Florida State has 11 through eight games, which is just one shy of last year’s and 2005’s total. WEATHERFORD MATCHES CAREER COMPLETIONS MARK Playing in his first game since Alabama, quarterback Drew Weatherford tied his career high with 35 completions on 47 passes for 339 yards and one touchdown. The 339 yards are the third-highest total of his career and the most since he threw for a career-best 377 against Virginia in 2005. WEATHERFORD MOVES UP ON ALL-TIME FSU LISTS Junior quarterback Drew Weatherford moved up on several Florida State career lists tonight. His 35 completions upped him to third in school history - passing No. 3 Danny Kanell (529) - with 542 completions for his career. He is 34 shy of passing Chris Rix for the number two spot. The 339 yards are his eighth 300-yard game, breaking a tie with Gary Huff in fifth and forging one with Thad Busby for fourth. When you add in his eight yards rushing, Weatherford accounted for 347 total yards on the night to pass Huff for fifth with 6,169 total yards. He needs eight more yards to pass Kanell (6,176) for fourth. Weatherford needs 30 yards to hop Kanell on the career passing yards charts at 6,372.

FAGG HAS A BIG NIGHT AGAINST THE BLUE DEVILS Senior wide receiver De’Cody Fagg had the best game of his career tonight against Duke. His 134 yards and nine catches are both career highs. Coming into tonight, his highest yardage output was 113 against the Citadel in 2005 and he reeled in a then career-high seven receptions versus Troy last year.

Two-Thousand Seven Review BOSTON (AP) — Geno Hayes returned Matt Ryan’s third interception for a 38-yard touchdown with 1:10 to play on Saturday night to help Florida State beat second-ranked Boston College 27-17, ending the Eagles’ run at an unbeaten season and shaking up the BCS standings yet again. Drew Weatherford completed 29-of-45 passes for 354 yards for Florida State (6-3, 3-3), hitting Preston Parker nine times for 93 yards and a touchdown and De’Cody Fagg on six catches for 111 yards and a TD. Ryan finished 25-for-53 for two touchdowns and 415 yards - his fourth career 400-yard game, tying Doug Flutie for the most in school history. Ryan was picked off once in the first quarter inside the Seminoles 10. He also threw an interception early in the third that allowed Florida State to move into position for a 40-yard field goal that made it 10-0. Ryan led BC on a four-play, 70-yard drive over 63 seconds, hitting Ryan Purvis for 26 yards to the Florida State 30, and then Brandon Robinson for the touchdown. The teams traded field goals, then Weatherford hit Fagg on a 42-yard touchdown pass to give the Seminoles a 20-10 lead. Ryan hit Rich Gunnell on a 42-yard pass to the Florida State 6 with 7:24 left. Two plays later, including a penalty that moved the ball to the 3, Ryan hit a wide-open Purvis in the middle of the end zone to make it 20-17. Ryan moved the Eagles out to the 33 before Hayes ripped the ball free from Purvis on a pass across the middle and went easily into the end zone.

GAME NOTES

ROBINSON TIES SCHOOL RECORD WITH FIFTH-STRAIGHT INTERCEPTION The first-half interception by sophomore cornerback Patrick Robinson ties a school record with an interception in five-consecutive games. He equals the mark set by former Florida State All-American, and current student assistant manager, Terrell Buckley in 1991. It’s the first time a Seminole has had an interception in five-straight regularseason games. Buckley’s fifth came in the 1992 Cotton Bowl victory over Texas A&M. Robinsons’ five interceptions this season are the most since Tay Cody picked off six in 2000. WEATHERFORD MOVES UP TO THIRD IN SCHOOL HISTORY ON PASSING CHART... With 175 yards passing in the first half, quarterback Drew Weatherford moved up two spots from fifth to third in school history. After one half of play, the junior has 6,518 career passing yards. He moved passed No. 4 Danny Kanell (6,372) and No. 3 Gary Huff (6,378). He has completed passes to six different receivers tonight, marking the third game this season in which he has hit at least six different receivers. ....AND TO FOURTH ON TOTAL YARDS LIST The 10-yard pass from Drew Weatherford to De’Cody Fagg moved the FSU signal caller up to fourth on the Florida State career total yardage chart. He moved passed Danny Kanell (6,169 yards) and has 6,355 career yards through the first half of tonight’s game. SEMINOLES PITCH FIRST HALF SHUTOUT FOR SECOND GAME IN A ROW The first half shutout by the Seminoles is their second first-half shutout in a row. Last week FSU kept Duke off the board until the fourth quarter. It’s the fourth first-half shutout of the year for the Seminoles. In the previous three games that Florida State has pitched a first-half shutout – all Florida State victories – its opponent has not scored until the fourth quarter. Adding in the second half at Clemson, it’s the fifth time FSU has blanked an opponent for a half. FLORIDA STATE GETS FIRST ROAD VICTORY AGAINST NO. 2 Tonight’s victory is Florida State’s first over the second-ranked team in the country on its home field and only its second win over No. 2 during the regular season. The first victory was a 24-10 triumph over Miami on October 28, 1989. Prior to tonight, FSU’s last win over number two was the 46-29 victory over Virginia Tech in the 2000 National Championship game at the Sugar Bowl. FSU had lost its last two contests against No. 2, each coming against Miami (2001 & 2003). Overall, Florida State is now 4-8-1 against number two and 1-3-1 on the road.

SEMINOLES RECORD FIFTH MULTIPLE INTERCEPTION GAME OF THE SEASON The interception by Tony Carter – his third of the season and sixth of his career - to thwart Boston College’s first drive of the second half gives Florida State five games this year with multiple interceptions. The defense matched its season-high with three interceptions – Miami and NC State. It’s also the fifth game in a row the defense has recorded a pick and the Seminoles have 12 interceptions during that span. FSU now has 14 interceptions for the year, which is the most since 2004 when the defense recorded 16. GANO BOOMS CAREER LONG PUNT The 65-yard punt in the third quarter by junior punter Graham Gano is the longest of his career. Add in the 61 yarder he launched earlier in the quarter and it’s the first time in his career that Gano has produced a pair of 60-yard punts. Prior to tonight, his career long is 63 against Wake Forest last season, also a game marred by rain

Two-Thousand Seven Review

BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) — Tyrod Taylor threw for two touchdowns and ran for another Saturday and the Hokies finally got coach Frank Beamer his first career victory against Florida State, 40-21. The Hokies blew a 14-point halftime lead and trailed 21-20 entering the final quarter, but Taylor drove them to his go-ahead 3-yard scoring run, and three late Seminoles turnovers turned a close game into a rout. Beamer was 0-7 in his career against Florida State, and Seminoles coach Bobby Bowden was 15-0 in his career against the Hokies. On the Hokies go-ahead drive, he ran 12 yards for a first down, and threw a deep ball to Justin Harper down the left sideline that was initially ruled no catch, but was overturned, making it a 45-yard gain to the 1. The Seminoles lost quarterback Drew Weatherford to injury before halftime and were led back by backup Christian Ponder until the fourth quarter. Two plays after Taylor’s go-ahead run, Ponder was stripped by Barry Booker and Cam Martin recovered for Tech, leading to a 22-yard field goal. Chris Ellis then intercepted Ponder at the 5 and danced into the end zone, making it 38-21. Trailing 20-6, the Seminoles quickly got back in the game in the third quarter. Gary Cismesia’s 50-yard field goal ended their first series, and Dekoda Watson intercepted a tipped pass by Taylor and returned it 40 yards for a TD just 1:54 later. Ponder hit De’Cody Fagg for 28 yards on a third-and-5, ran for 22 yards on a third-and-14 and hit Fagg in the end zone for the touchdown that gave the Seminoles a 21-20 lead, stunning the crowd.

GAME NOTES

CISMESIA MOVES UP CAREER SCORING LIST The first-quarter field goal that tied the game at 6-6 moved kicker Gary Cismesia up a spot on the Florida State career scoring chart. By scoring FSU’s first six points, the senior has surpassed All-American Greg Allen for sixth on the list. The Lou Groza Award semifinalist now has 280 points for his career and is 14 back of No. 5 Warrick Dunn at 294 points. Cismesia is now 9-10 from 30-39 yards and 6-9 from 40-49 yards. FAGG SURPASSES TWO ON CATCHES CHART With two receptions in the first half, wide receiver De’Cody Fagg has moved up two notches on the career receptions list. Through the first 30 minutes of the game, the senior now has 115 receptions for his career. That ties him for 14th with Snoop Minnis. He passed No. 15 Lorenzo Booker (114) and needs three more to catch Anquan Boldin in 13th. HAYES AND BROWN MOVE UP ON TFL LIST Florida State was busy in the Virginia Tech backfield, recording 11 tackles for a loss of 16 yards. It’s the fourth time this year FSU has recorded double-digit TFLs: Colorado (10), NC State (14) and Wake Forest (16). Nine different players got in on the action with linebacker Dekoda Watson leading the way at 3.5. Fellow linebacker Geno Hayes was next at 2.5 and his effort moved him up the career FSU TFL chart with 28.5. He moved up two spots to No. 12 past Buster Davis (13th – 26.5) and Marvin Jones (12th – 27.0). He needs two and a half more to catch Eric Moore in 11th. In addition, defensive end Everette Brown had 0.5 to move into a tie with Kamerion Wimbley and Corey Simon for 15th at 23.0. PONDER CONNECTS TO FAGG FOR FIRST CAREER TD PASS In his first collegiate game, redshirt freshman quarterback Christian Ponder connected for his first collegiate touchdown pass when he hit De’Cody Fagg on an eight-yard scoring strike. Ponder is the first Florida State quarterback to throw a touchdown in his first game since Chris Rix in 2001 threw a pair against Duke on September 1, 2001. Since then, Adrian McPherson, Fabian Walker, Wyatt Sexton, Drew Weatherford and Xavier Lee have failed to throw a touchdown in their first collegiate game. WATSON RETURNS FIRST CAREER INT FOR TOUCHDOWN The interception return for a touchdown by linebacker Dekoda Watson was the first of his career in both instances. Watson is the fourth Seminole defender to take an interception back for six, joining Geno Hayes (Boston College), Toddrick Verdell (Miami) and Michael Ray Garvin (NC State). The four interceptions for returns this year is the first time Florida State has had four interception returns for touchdowns since 1993 when it had another quartet.

Two-Thousand Seven Review

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Bobby Bowden won his 300th game at Florida State, getting 133 yards rushing and a touchdown from Preston Parker in a 24-16 victory against Maryland on Saturday. Bowden, who has 373 career coaching wins, is assured of keeping his lead over Penn State’s Joe Paterno for at least one more week in their long-running competition for the most wins in major college history. Florida State (7-4, 4-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) clinched a 31st consecutive winning season, while Maryland (5-6, 2-5 ACC) needs a win at North Carolina State next week just to become bowl eligible. Parker, who had been the Seminoles’ leading receiver, made his first start at tailback and ran for 51 yards on his first four carries, including an 18-yard TD that gave the Seminoles a 14-3 lead late in the first quarter. He was moved to running back this week after Antone Smith was lost to a shoulder injury in last week’s loss at Virginia Tech. Drew Weatherford bounced back from a concussion that knocked him out of last week’s game to throw for 204 yards and a touchdown. He also ran for another. Florida State took a 21-3 lead 44 seconds into the second quarter when Weatherford and De’Cody Fagg hooked up on a 10-yard touchdown pass. The Seminoles led 21-6 at the half with Maryland’s points coming on a pair of field goals by Obi Egekeze, who added a third in the fourth quarter to complete the scoring. Maryland made it interesting in the second half, pulling to within 21-13 midway through the third quarter when Darrius Heyward-Bey scored on a 14-yard pass from Chris Turner. Turner completed 16 of 32 passes for 242 yards, but threw a costly interception and was sacked four times. Patrick Robinson’s sixth interception of the season set up the game’s initial score, a 1-yard run on fourth down by Weatherford. Parker, a 6-foot, 190-pound sophomore from Delray Beach, carried the ball 20 times, caught a pass for 21 yards and returned four punts for 40 more yards.

Two-Thousand Seven Review GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Tim Tebow threw three touchdown passes, ran for two scores and carried the 12th-ranked Gators to a 45-12 victory over the Seminoles on Saturday night. Tebow led the Gators (9-3) to touchdowns on four of their first five possessions, staking them to big lead that eased the pressure on Florida’s young defense that has struggled much of the year. Percy Harvin did his part, too. After missing the last two games because of migraine headaches, Harvin returned and ran 16 times for 157 yards. He scored on a 24-yard run with 3 minutes to play. Tebow and Harvin burned the Seminoles (7-5) all over the field, helping extend Florida’s dominance in the series. The Gators have won four in a row, the longest streak since winning their sixth straight in 1986. With Tebow and Harvin on board for at least another year, Florida State’s outlook for ending the streak doesn’t look so promising. Tebow finished 19-of-28 for 262 yards. The sophomore also carried 13 times for 89 yards. Tebow ran around and over defenders all game, and stirred the crowd into a frenzy after every big play. He had most of the 90,664 at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium chanting “Tebow, Heisman” with 5:37 to play. Maybe Geno Hayes should have joined in. Florida State’s junior linebacker said early in the week that Tebow was “going down” Saturday. Hayes was right, sort of. Tebow went down the field and down in history. His second rushing touchdown gave him 22 for the season, tying the NCAA record for a quarterback. Chance Harridge of Air Force also had 22 in 2002.

GAME NOTES

CISMESIA SETS SCHOOL RECORD WITH 60-YARD BOOT The 60-yard field goal by kicker Gary Cismesia to end the half is the longest in school history and the longest in the country this season. He broke the record of 56 yards set by Sebastian Janikowski against Wake Forest in 1997. It was also his fourth field goal of the game - his fifth game with three field goals or more - and his 27th of the season to tie him with Janikowski for the single-season school record. The school record for field goals in a game is five by Cismesia and several other players. FLORIDA STATE CHEWING UP YARDS ON THE GROUND Against the nation’s No. 14 run defense, the Seminoles were able to amass 93 yards on the ground. That’s a season high for a half for the Seminoles - surpassing the 79 yards gained against NC State - and just six yards below the Gators’ average for an entire game. FSU hasn’t rushed for this many yards in the first half since it gained 96 versus UCLA in the 2006 Emerald Bowl. LSU (247 yards) and Georgia (196 yards) are the only two opponents to rush for 100 yards against Florida this year. WEATHERFORD SETS ACC RECORD FOR PASSES WITHOUT AN INTERCEPTION Quarterback Drew Weatherford attempted 37 passes against Florida. His 28th attempt in the third quarter established a new ACC record for consecutive passes in a single season without an interception at 225. The previous ACC record was 224 consecutive passes without an in interception by Matt Blundin of Virginia in 1991. He needs to throw four more passes without an interception to break the ACC career record of 237 set FSU Heisman Trophy winner Chris Weinke over the 1998 and 1999 seasons. FOUR FIELD GOALS MOVES CISMESIA UP ON NCAA SINGLESEASON CHART With four field goals today against Florida, kicker Gary Cismesia has moved into the top ten on the NCAA single-season list. He finished the game with 27 field goals, which equals the FSU and ACC record set by Sebastian Janikowski, and puts him in a tie for eighth on NCAA charts. The national single-season record is 31 by Billy Bennett of Georgia in 2003. MORE ON CISMESIA’S 60-YARD FIELD GOAL In addition to the Florida State record that kicker Gary Cismesia set with his 60-yard field goal to end the first half, it is also the new ACC record. The previous mark was 57 yards set by three players: Vince Fusco of Duke against Clemson (1976), Obed Ariri of Clemson against Wake Forest (1977) and Chris Gardocki of Clemson against Appalachian State (1990). The boot tied the Ben Hill Griffin Stadium mark set by the Gators’ Chris Perkins against Tulane (1984). It is also the second-longest by a Florida opponent, trailing Tony Franklin of Texas A&M in the 1977 Sun Bowl.

Two-Thousand Eight Florida State University Football

Two-Thousand Seven Review NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Andre Woodson threw four TD paases against Florida State and Kentucky won its second straight Music City Bowl, beating the Seminoles 35-28 on Monday for Bobby Bowden’s first bowl loss in December. Kentucky hadn’t ended back-to-back seasons with bowl wins since 1951-52, but the Wildcats pulled off the feat in Nashville one year after surprising Clemson, coached by Bowden’s son, Tommy. As for the elder Bowden, who has led the Seminoles to 26 straight bowls and two national titles, his December bowl record finally has its first blemish at 7-1-1. Bowden is major college football’s winningest coach with 373 victories -- one ahead of Penn State’s Joe Paterno. Woodson capitalized on the missing depth and finished the season with 40 touchdown passes, breaking Tim Couch’s school-record 37 set in 1998. It was the 19th consecutive game with at least 200 passing yards and a scoring pass for Woodson, a senior who figures to be among the first quarterbacks taken in the NFL draft. The Wildcats took the lead for good midway through the third quarter on Woodson’s 2-yard slant to Rafael Little, who 126 yards on 26 carries. It was the 13th 100-yard rushing game for the senior running back, tying him for second on Kentucky’s career list. Florida State quarterback Drew Weatherford pulled the Seminoles to 28-21 with 8 minutes left on a 1-yard bootleg run -- his first career game with two rushing TDs. Woodson immediately answered, dumping off a short pass that Steve Johnson took for 38 yards for his second TD reception. Johnson led all receivers with 126 yards. Weatherford would add a TD pass to Greg Carr with just over 2 minutes remaining, and Florida State got the ball back at the 1-minute mark behind by one score. Linebacker Micah Johnson appeared to come up with a game-icing interception, but a fumble gave the Seminoles another chance. Weatherford’s last-second pass fell incomplete in the end zone.

GAME NOTES

WEATHERFORD SETS ACC RECORD STREAK Quarterback Drew Weatherford broke the ACC and school record for consecutive pass attempts without throwing an interception in the first quarter. The previous record was held by Florida State’s Chris Weinke at 237 consecutive passes. Weatherford was 6-for8 for 50 yards in the first quarter. In the first half, Weatherford attempted 20 passes pushing his current record to 254 straight passes without an interception. FIRST FOR CARTER AND ROLLE Tony Carter’s fumble recovery in the first quarter was the first of his career. He returned the fumble 51 yards to the Kentucky 47. On the same play, the fumble was caused by Myron Rolle, his first career caused fumble. Rolle has recovered a pair of fumbles this year. CARR ECLIPSES 700 YARDS With a 24-yard reception on a 3-and-10 play in the second quarter, Greg Carr joined De’Cody Fagg with 700 plus yards receiving in 2007. Carr and Fagg became the first pair of FSU wideouts with 700 or more receiving yards a piece in the same season since 2003 when Craphonso Thorpe (994) and P.K. Sam (735) accomplished that feat. PARKER MOVES INTO TOP 15 Sophomore Preston Parker made two receptions for 29 yards in the first half moving him into the Seminoles’ all-time top-15 for catches in a single-season. Parker is now tied with Ron Sellers who recorded 56 receptions in 1966. CARTER CONTINUES BOWL GAME SIX-CESS Tony Carter recorded his fourth interception of the season on an Andre Woodson pass in the second quarter. He returned the pick 24 yards for his first touchdown of the season and third of his career. Carter had an 86-yard interception return for a touchdown in last year’s Emerald Bowl victory against UCLA. His first career interception return for a touchdown came against Virginia in 2006, a 35-yard return. It also marks the fifth defensive touchdown by the Seminoles this season. SMITH GOES OVER 100...AGAIN Tailback Antone Smith rushed for 156 yards against Kentucky. It marks the third time this season and fourth game of his career that Smith has rushed for over 100 yards in a game. The 156 yards on the ground against the Wildcats also marks a career-high. This year Smith rushed for 146 yards against Duke and 114 yards against Miami. Drew Weatherford also finished the game with a career-high 61 yards rushing.

RETIRED SEMINOLE NUMBERS & JERSEYS

Since Florida State University ﬁrst ﬁelded an intercolle-giate football team 55 years ago, only seven numbers/Jerseys have been retired. Those numbers/Jerseys — 2, 16, 17, 25, 34, 28 and 50 — belonged to seven of the greatest players in Florida State football history — Deion Sanders, Chris Weinke, Charlie Ward, Fred Biletnikoff, Ron Sellers, Warrick Dunn and Ron Simmons. With his blessing, Sellers’ #34 was brought out of retirement in 2003.

#25 Fred Biletnikoff WIDE RECEIVER - 1962-64

Biletnikoff played wide receiver at Florida State from 1961-64 under Head Coach Bill Peterson. He was FSU’s ﬁrst consensus All-American. As a senior, he ranked fourth in the nation with 57 receptions for 11 touchdowns, not including four touchdown catches in the Gator Bowl. Following his collegiate success, Biletnikoff went on to star for the Oakland Raiders of the National Football League for 14 years. During that time, he played in four Pro Bowls and was the Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl XI.

#50 Ron Simmons NOSEGUARD - 1977-80

The greatest defender in Florida State history, Ron Simmons’ number 50 was retired in 1988. Simmons anchored the center of the defense that took FSU to a pair of Orange Bowl appearances in 1979 and 1980, resulting in FSU’s highest national rankings ever at that time. A dominating noseguard and the Tribe’s first two-time consensus All-American, Simmons seemed to camp out in opponents’ backfields. He totaled an FSU record 25 quarterback sacks and 44 tackles for loss — a mark that held top ranking at FSU for 23 years. He was the first Seminole defender to have his number retired.

#2 Deion Sanders DEFENSIVE BACK - 1985-88

Deion Sanders is the finest defensive back in Florida State history and was so recognized when his jersey was retired in 1995. The winner of the 1988 Jim Thorpe Award signifying the nation’s top defensive back, Sanders was a two-time All-American who electriﬁed the nation with his acrobatic interceptions and remarkable moves as a punt returner. Sanders’ legend grew over his junior and senior seasons with the widespread use of his nickname “Prime Time,” but he remained one of the hardest working players in FSU history. His 14 career interceptions ranked second all-time when he left in 1988 and he held the career record for punt return yardage when he left with 1,429.

#34 Ron Sellers FLANKER - 1966-68

Sellers remains the most proliﬁc receiver in FSU history. He held most of the NCAA receiving records from the end of his senior season in 1968 until 1987. A ﬂanker for Florida State from 1966 to 1968, he accumulated 3,979 yards on 240 receptions. Sellers’ career was marked by consistency, quality and quantity. He caught passes in 30 consecutive games, averaging 119.9 yards per game. Sellers also led Florida State to three bowl games during his playing days.

Florida State’s Charlie Ward began his senior season in 1993 chasing both the schools’ ﬁrst national championship and the Heisman Trophy. The 6-foot 2-inch, 190-pound football/basketball star would catch both and much more ﬁnishing the year as the most heralded athlete in the history of college football. Thousands of fans poured into Doak Campbell Stadium for a celebration of the national championship and Ward’s Heisman, which included the surprise retirement of his number. He joined Fred Biletnikoff and Ron Sellers becoming only the third player in FSU history to be so honored. Ward’s passing and running skills were already well known qualities by 1993, but his inspired leadership and poise under pressure during his senior year elevated him to one of the game’s all-time greats. So exceptional was Ward’s command of the offense that coaches moved him into the shotgun to allow him to make adjustments during the play. Ward set 19 school and seven Atlantic Coast Conference records over his two years as the starting quarterback for the Seminoles. A consensus All-American, Ward won over 30 individual awards in addition to the Heisman. Ward ranks second in career total offense at FSU with 6,636 yards and has the highest completion rate for a career (62.3%) and lowest interception percentage (2.90%). Ward set the FSU record for touchdown passes in a season with 27 in 1993.

#28 Warrick Dunn RUNNING BACK - 1993-96

Warrick Dunn’s four-year career at Florida State established him as one of the most popular players in all of college football and the ﬁnest running back in school history. Dunn is the only Seminole ever to rush for over 1,000 yards in three consecutive seasons. His 3,959 career rushing yards broke Greg Allen’s school record set in 1984. He also broke Allen’s single season rushing record when he ran for 1,242 yards as a junior in 1995. Dunn has the record for most touchdowns scored in a career with 49 over four seasons and rushed for over 100 yards more times (21) than any player at FSU. He was a three-time All-ACC selection as well as a member of the ACC all-academic team. He was selected to the ﬁrst team Football Writer’s All-America squad as a senior and earned second team Associated Press honors that same year.

Weinke compiled a remarkable 32-3 record as the starting quarterback at FSU, which ranked as the seventh best winning percentage in NCAA history. His 79 career touchdown passes ranked as the 12th best performance in NCAA history and his career passing yards placed him at 18th on the NCAA’s all-time list. Weinke owned the ﬁrst, second and fourth best passing games in FSU history headlined by a school record 536 passing yards against Duke in 2000. His accomplishments were even more impressive considering he suffered a potentially career-ending neck injury as a sophomore. Weinke’s place among Florida State’s all-time greatest players was recognized when his jersey No. 16 was retired in 2001, making it one of only seven retired numbers/jerseys in school history. His place among the ACC’s all-time best was recognized when he was voted one of the 50 best players in the history of the conference.

Deion Sanders

Terrell Buckley

1988 JIM THORPE AWARD WINNER

1991 JIM THORPE AWARD WINNER

CORNERBACK, 1985-88

One of the best athletes ever to wear a Florida State uniform, cornerback Deion Sanders won the Jim Thorpe Award as the top defensive back of 1988. Sanders collected the prize after a career which saw him gather 14 career interceptions, not including three in bowl games. In his junior and senior seasons, FSU went 11-1 with a pair of New Year’s Day bowl wins. In 1988, Sanders ranked in the top 10 nationally with five interceptions in nine games. He was the nation’s top punt returner, averaging 15.2 yards per return. The Ft. Myers, Fla., native ranks third on the FSU career inter-ceptions chart and holds most of the school’s punt return records. A three-sport star in football, baseball and track at Florida State, Sanders was the fifth pick in the 1989 NFL draft by the Atlanta Falcons. He became a successful two-sport pro — elected to the Pro Bowl seven times in football and has started in centerfield for the Atlanta Braves and the Cincinnati Reds.

CORNERBACK, 1989-91

In 1991, Terrell Buckley capped the best season ever by a Florida State cornerback by becoming the second Seminole ever to win the Jim Thorpe Award. A junior, Buckley blew away the Florida State record for interceptions with 12 in 1991. He intercepted passes in eight of FSU’s 12 regular season contests to lead the country in pickoffs. Against Michigan in Ann Arbor, his interception and 40-yard return for a touchdown on the game’s first play set the stage for a 51-31 Florida State win. A native of Pascagoula, Miss., Buckley also demolished the Florida State career record with 21 INTs in just three seasons. His 470 career return yards broke an NCAA record that had stood since 1974. Following the year, Buckley entered the NFL draft and was selected by the Green Bay Packers with the fifth pick in the first round.

The top player in the nation in 1992, Marvin Jones became the first Seminole to capture two national awards in the same year when he earned both the Butkus Award for linebackers and the Lombardi Award for linemen and linebackers following his junior season.

He made 10 or more tackles in nine games and finished fourth in the balloting for the Heisman Trophy. He finished his career seventh on FSU’s career tackle chart with 369, and third on the all-time list with 28 tackles for loss. A first team All-ACC choice out of Miami, Fla., Florida State tailored its nationally-ranked defense to Jones’ strength in 1992. Jones left Tallahassee for the NFL after his junior season, and at the time, was the highest Seminole draft choice when he was selected fourth overall by the New York Jets.

Weinke led the Seminoles to an undefeated season and the national championship as a junior in 1999 and compiled a remarkable 32-3 record as a starter at FSU, which ranked as the seventh best winning percentage in NCAA history. Weinke set both the Florida State and Atlantic Coast Conference record for career passing with 9,839 career passing yards and would set 26 school records during his career. His 79 career touchdown passes ranked as the 12th best performance in the NCAA history and his career passing yards placed him at 18th on the NCAA’s all-time list. Weinke owns the ﬁrst, second and fourth best passing games in FSU history headlined by a school record 536 passing yards against Duke in 2000.

DEFENSIVE END, 1997-00

Defensive end Jamal Reynolds became just the second Florida State player ever to win the Lombardi Award when he was named the nation’s most outstanding lineman/ linebacker following his senior year. A consensus AllAmerican following the 2000 season, Reynolds was another in the prominent line of great defensive linemen for the Seminoles that included 1999 Lombardi runner-up Corey Simon. Reynolds joins Seminole star Marvin Jones who won the Lombardi in 1992 from his middle linebacker position. Reynolds led the Seminoles in sacks as a senior with 12 and forced four fumbles for a defense that was among the nation’s best in 2000. He finished the year with 58 tackles including 28 unassisted stops and had two safeties on the year. His 23.5 career quarterback sacks ranks fourth all-time at FSU and his 12 sacks as a senior ties him with Ron Simmons (1977) as the fifth best season ever. Reynolds was the first FSU player selected in the 2001 NFL draft when he was taken in the first round by the Green Bay Packers with the 10th pick. Reynolds’ distinction as a consensus All-American puts him in the company of Peter Boulware (1996), Reinard Wilson (1996) and Andre Wadsworth (1997), who also earned the distinction at defensive end.

RUNNER-UP FOR 1997 LOMBARDI AWARD

NOSEGUARD, 1996-99

One of the finest defensive linemen in FSU history, Corey Simon was a consensus All-America selection in 1999, following a senior season in which he was a finalist for both the Lombardi Award and Outland Trophy. Simon led the FSU defensive linemen and was fourth on the team with 84 tackles, including 48 solo stops. He led the ACC with 21 tackles for loss and also had four quarterbacks sacks and three passes broken up. Simon recorded eight games with at least seven tackles in 1999 and put together his two finest games in road wins over Clemson (with a career high 10 tackles, including three for loss) and Virginia. His interception while covering running back Thomas Jones of the Cavaliers was one of the most impressive plays by a lineman that season. He also blocked a punt against the Cavaliers and was named the ACC Defensive Lineman of the Week for his play in that game. Simon was selected ESPN Player of the Game vs. Clemson and Virginia. He had at least one tackle for loss in all 11 games and his play was instrumental in keeping Florida State ranked atop the polls for the entire season.

DEFENSIVE END, 1994-97

Defensive end Andre Wadsworth went from a walk-on at Florida State in 1993 to consensus All-America as a senior in 1997 and parlayed that success to become Florida State’s highest ever NFL Draft pick as he was taken with the third overall pick in the first round by the Arizona Cardinals. Wadsworth had an outstanding senior season, which resulted in being named the 1997 ACC Defensive Player of the Year as well as to the All-ACC first team. A finalist for the Lombardi Award, Wadsworth led the ACC in sacks with 16 during his senior season — a total that ranks second on the FSU all-time single season list. He finished his career with 233 total tackles and his 23 career sacks ranks tied for fifth in school history. Wadsworth started for two seasons at nose guard before moving to defensive end in his final year.

The Record Book Bill Peterson

(1960-70) ................. 62-42-11

Bill Peterson took over a football program in deep trouble in 1960. When he left, 11 years and four bowl games later, he had become the most significant coach in the first 25 years of Florida State football. Under “Pete”, the Seminoles went 62-42-11. The most memorable Peterson year was 1964, when the “Seven Magnificents” led Florida State to a 9-1-1 record and FSU’s first ever win over Florida.

Larry Jones compiled a 15-19 record in three years as the Seminole head coach. In his ﬁrst two seasons, the popular coach led his teams to a 15-8 record; but he is probably remembered most for the 1973 campaign, when his team did not win a game.

Darrell Mudra was a successful coach before arriving at Florida State, and he was successful after he left. At FSU, Mudra inherited an 0-11 team and wasn’t able to bring the program back to the glory years it enjoyed under Bill Peterson. Mudra coached from the press box instead of the sidelines.

Media can access the press box only through the designated elevator in the northwest tower of the University Center. Media should proceed down Stadium Drive after parking and move towards Gate B in the northwest corner of the endzone.

The media headquarters hotel for Florida State football will be the Hampton Inn and Suites located at 3388 Lonnbladh Road. Most media functions, including the Sunday morning “Breakfast with Bobby,” will be held at the Hampton Inn (850574-4900). The FSU sports information ofﬁce has a limited number of rooms set aside for accredited media during home football weekends. Contact Maryjane Gardner of the SID ofﬁce at (850/644-2016) to make reservations for these rooms. Priority will be determined in the same manner spelled out under “press policies.”

RADIO-TV

Florida State will host network television and both home and visiting radio in booths in the press box. Network television (or the network broadcasting live) will be working from a mid-ﬁeld booth on the 8th Level (one below working press). Both home and visiting radio will broadcast from booths at the south end of the 9th level.

PHOTOGRAPHERS

Only accredited photographers and those shooting for the FSU Sports Information Ofﬁce will be issued working credentials. Florida State reserves the right to admit only those photographers deemed to be on the premises for legitimate media purposes. All photographers working FSU games should be prepared to show a media ID card and equipment designed to photograph major college football. Florida State uses a double photo line system on its sidelines. Only those photographers actually shooting the game will be allowed on the “front” line. These shooters will be given photo armbands upon checkin to allow them front line access. All other photo personnel will be required to stay behind a second line so as not to obstruct the view of the shooters. This would include grips, runners and sideline reporters. Violation of the double-line system will result in removal from the sideline. No media personnel are allowed in the team area of the sidelines at any time during a game. Sideline passes for local television will be severely curtailed for televised games and each station will be restricted to two passes. Still photographers may have access to the sidelines only. Those holding a photography credential should report to the Press Box where they will be issued an armband, rosters and a pre-game meal. The only access to the ﬁeld is through the gate at the northwest corner of the stadium near Gate A.

VIDEO SERVICES

Florida State’s Sports Information Ofﬁce has the ability to assist networks and television stations by providing video services through Seminole Productions, Inc. (SPI).

PRESS PARKING

Once again, parking is limited in 2008 and passes will be issued on a priority basis within the same guidelines as working credentials. NOTE: Press parking is approximately 600 yards from the press box.

Thomas Kent “T.K.” Wetherell PRESIDENT

r. Thomas Kent “T.K.” Wetherell became the 13th president of Florida State University on January 6, 2003. He is the first university alumnus to serve as president of Florida State. A career educator with more than 30 years of experience in the State of Florida’s educational system, Dr. Wetherell is also the only FSU president with experience in all four major divisions within higher education, having held positions in the offices of academic affairs, student services, business affairs, and college development. He has held leadership positions in two-year as well as four-year colleges, and he has served as a faculty member in both public and private institutions of higher education. Dr. Wetherell is recognized as a high-energy, student-oriented president. He is an innovator who challenges faculty, staff and administrators to set high professional and personal standards. During his tenure as president, Florida State realized its dream of establishing, receiving full accreditation and graduating the first class of the nation’s first public new allopathic medical school in the last 25 years. Under Dr. Wetherell’s leadership Florida State has undertaken the university’s most extensive construction program, adding three new residence halls, a general purpose classroom building, new food services facilities, parking garages, an alumni center, research facilities, massive renovation projects, a Heritage Walk system throughout campus, as well as the construction of a new medical school. Dr. Wetherell established the Pathways of Excellence program designed to enhance Florida State University’s stature as a public graduate research university. The Pathways of Excellence program is designed with the Association of American Universities evaluation criteria as its basis. In addition to issuing a challenge to the university’s community to reach a higher level academically, Dr. Wetherell also made available online data that will allow the public and individual faculty to monitor the university’s and their respective academic department’s success in this endeavor. Dr. Wetherell is an outstanding advocate for higher education and has been called the state’s most “politically astute president.” In addition to his political insight, Dr. Wetherell is expert in resource development and led the university to successfully complete Florida State’s second major capital campaign. During the campaign Dr. Wetherell gave the largest gift a seated president of a public research

university had ever given to an institution in the United States. As president, Dr. Wetherell has also been the university’s most vocal advocate for a community service program as part of students’ college experience. Dr. Wetherell has been inducted into Florida State University’s Hall of Fame and was the recipient of the prestigious Moore-Stone Award, the Circle of Gold Award and the university’s Distinguished Service Award. In addition, he has also been awarded an honorary Doctorate of Letters from Flagler College. Dr. Wetherell served in the Florida House of Representatives from 1980 to 1992, the last two years as Speaker of the House. During his tenure in the House he served as chairman of the appropriations committee and the higher education committee. The Miami Herald named him one of the Top Ten Legislative Leaders in the House each year from 1987 until 1992. During his years in the legislative process Florida enacted some of the most progressive education legislation in America. A third-generation Floridian, Dr. Wetherell was born on December 22, 1945 in Daytona Beach, Florida. He attended Port Orange Elementary School and Mainland Senior High School, where he was active in service clubs, student government and athletics. He attended Florida State University on a football scholarship and played on the 1963-67 football teams. He still holds the record for the longest kickoff return in Florida State University history. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in social studies education from FSU in 1967 and 1968 respectively. He earned a doctorate in education administration from FSU in 1974. Dr. Wetherell is married to Virginia B. Wetherell, who was appointed by Governor Chiles as Secretary of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection from 1991 to 1998. She previously served as a state legislator representing Pensacola. She currently is president of Wetherell Consulting Services. They are the parents of three children: Kent, Blakely, and Page, and have two grandchildren: Emily and Tyler. Wetherell’s personal interests include outdoor recreation, travel and aviation.

RANDY SPETMAN

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

lorida State University President, Dr. T.K. Wetherell, introduced Randy as the university’s new Director of Athletics on February 4, ending a national search that began in December. Spetman, a former Air Force colonel, takes over at FSU after serving as Athletics Director at Utah State since July 1, 2004 and at the United States Air Force Academy from 1996-2003. “Randy Spetman has a strong record of leadership with honesty and integrity. His experience and organizational and management skills set him apart as one of the best athletics directors in the country,” Wetherell said. “We’re very pleased that he is joining the Florida State Family.”

Media and University Information

Spetman, 55, was lauded over his tenure at Utah State for the success of the Aggies’ athletic programs both on the field or court and in the classroom. Utah State joined the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) in 2005 and Utah State claimed four conference championships in its first two years. Even more impressive is the fact that USU’s student-athletes lead the WAC with a 78 percent graduation rate and have maintained over a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. Under Spetman’s leadership, Utah State moved forward with several facility projects, including high profile improvements to the football stadium. He also spearheaded fundraising and building efforts for a $12.5 million facility that will serve to meet the academic and athletic needs of the 16 intercollegiate sports at Utah State. He crafted a unique business partnership for medical health coverage that improved the overall coverage of USU student-athletes and reduced medical costs. In addition, he negotiated a lucrative new marketing agreement for Aggie Athletics with Learfield Sports Properties. “Florida State University is one of the finest college athletics programs in the nation,” said Spetman. “To be asked to serve as its athletics director is a great compliment, and I was thrilled to accept. I proudly served my country for many years with honor, commitment and pride. And I now look forward to bringing my skills as an athletics director to this university and serving Florida State University with the same honor, commitment and pride.” Prior to his stint at Utah State, Spetman spent eight successful years (1996-2003) as Director of Athletics at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Co. During his tenure, he administered the school’s 27-sport intercollegiate program as well as the physical education and intramural programs. Under his command, athletics teams at the Academy enjoyed unmatched success as the football team participated in four bowl games. Born and raised in Council Bluffs, Iowa, Spetman graduated from the Air Force Academy in 1976. He earned three letters as a defensive end for the Falcons and was a team captain as a senior. He also won a pair of heavyweight Wing Open Boxing Championships. Spetman’s 28 year military career took him around the world in a variety of positions. A command pilot with more than 3,000 hours of flight time, Spetman’s range of positions took him from assistant football coach at his alma mater to a pilot and from the Chief of Bomber Planning in Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm to serving as Chief, Command and Control Division, Operations Directorate of the U.S. European Command in Stuttgart, Germany. A graduate from Squadron Officer School, he attended the National War College and earned a master’s degree in National Security Strategy. Spetman also holds a master’s in management and supervision from Central Michigan University. He is currently the first Vice President of the National Association of Collegiate Director’s of Athletics (NACDA). He and his wife, the former Becky Luhring of Des Moines, Iowa, are the parents of two grown children, Brian and Kim.

ATHLETICS ACADEMIC SUPPORT PROGRAM The primary mission of the Athletic Academic Support program is to provide an environment that facilitates the academic success of each student-athlete.

Matt Schmauch Academic Commitment Award

The Matt Schmauch Academic Commitment Award was established in honor and memory of former Academic Support Assistant Director Matt Schmauch, who passed away in June 2003, and is given annually to a deserving football studentathlete. The award does not necessarily go to the football player with the highest GPA. Rather, it goes to the player who is dedicated to getting a degree, is accountable and responsible in the classroom and is working everyday to be a better student. 2004 ...............Eric Moore, Defensive End 2005 ..............

MISSION STATEMENT

The primary mission of the Athletic Academic Support program is to provide an environment that facilitates the academic success of each studentathlete. The focus is to provide a comprehensive support program integrated with the total University that will assist all student-athletes with the transition into college and provide continued support in all phases of academic and professional development, culminating with graduation, job placement or graduate school.

SERVICES AND PROGRAMS: Academic Advising

The advisors in Academic Support serve as the lower-division advising unit for all student-athletes. The

Bill Shults Director

188

staff advises students through the Liberal Studies curriculum and degree prerequisites. The advisors work with the students in a number of areas related to the academic experience at Florida State University, but with a primary emphasis in advising and monitoring the progress toward the selected degree program, taking into consideration, all variables, which would enhance or impede each student’s progress toward the goal of graduation.

assistance in the development of skills such as note taking, test preparation, and communication with faculty. In essence, mentors become an extension of the academic counselor as they keep the academic performance of their student-athletes under close observation and report to the academic counselors each week. All mentors are graduate or PhD level students who have outstanding academic backgrounds.

Study Hall

The Athletic Academic Support Computer Lab is located in the Athletic Academic Support wing at the Moore Athletics Center. It is outﬁtted with 30 PC compatible computers and several laser printers. The computer lab is available to student-athletes six days a week with extended hours during ﬁnals week. The entire Athletic Academic Support wing is also equipped with wireless internet.

Professionally supervised study sessions for each athletic team are organized in order to help ensure the academic success of the student-athletes. The main focus of the study hall program is to help students develop consistent and appropriate study patterns by providing a structured setting to work on class assignments and to provide tutorial assistance before academic problems arise. Although the criteria for study hall is left to the discretion of each academic counselor, typically, most freshmen, ﬁrst year transfers, and upperclassmen who have not yet achieved a satisfactory cumulative grade point average are asked to attend study hall.

Tutor and Mentor Program

The tutorial program is available to all student-athletes as they progress towards their ultimate goal of obtaining a college degree. Approximately, 65 tutors are hired a year, from a variety of academic departments.

Summer Bridge Program

Athletic Academic Support, in conjunction with Athletic Student Services and the University, offers incoming student-athletes a “Summer Bridge Program” to aid in the transition from high school to college. The program is a week long intensive orientation that incorporates the University orientation with the athletics department orientation. This orientation highlights many different topics that are important for student-athlete success. In addition to introducing the student-athlete to academic policies and procedures, other topics covered include nutrition, student life, community service, technology on campus, media training and compliance.

Academic Honors and Awards Program

The Academic Support Program is committed to recognizing the academic success of all studentathletes. The annual “Golden Torch Gala,” a black-tie academic awards banquet organized by Seminole Boosters, Inc., occurs each fall. At this event, the ACC Honor Roll studentathletes, as well as the individuals with the highest GPA on their respective teams, and the men’s & women’s teams with the highest GPA are recognized. Team meetings are held each year, during which time student-athletes are notiﬁed of potential honors and awards and are encouraged to apply.

Two-Thousand Eight Florida State University Football

Combining a strong grade point average with athletic accomplishments, community service activities, and leadership experiences make for a student-athlete capable of obtaining unlimited academic honors, awards, and postgraduate opportunities. Florida State University studentathletes have achieved great success in obtaining recognition for academic excellence. More than $390,000 in Postgraduate Scholarship monies has been granted to FSU student-athletes over the past 14 years, as well as numerous other academic honors and awards. During the 2007-08 academic year, 13 Seminole student-athletes were named District Academic AllAmericans, including Buster Posey and Matt Fairel (baseball), Myron Rolle (Football), Caroline Westrup (Golf), Becky Edwards, Kirsten van de Ven and Katrin Schmidt (Soccer), Robin Ahrberg, Carly Wynn and Melissa May (Softball), Mara Freshour (Women’s Basketball) and Javier Garcia-Tunon and Lydia Willemse (Track & Cross Country). At the conclusion of the 2007-08 school year, 170 Seminole studentathletes were named to the ACC Academic Honor Roll while six of Florida State’s athletic teams had a 3.0 or better cumulative grade point average. In the spring 2008 semester, 197 Seminoles achieved a 3.0 GPA or better, eight athletic teams had a 3.0 or better GPA and the average team semester GPA was a 2.8. Eleven student-athletes made the Spring 2008 President’s List with a perfect 4.0 GPA while 60 student-athletes earned Dean’s List status with a GPA of 3.5 or better. Kandia Batchelor (Track & Field), Whitney Brummett (Golf) and Abbie King (Swimming & Diving) were three of 41 Atlantic Coast Conference scholar-athletes named 2008 ACC Weaver-James-Corrigan Postgraduate Scholarship Award recipients. Academic reform continues to take hold on college and university campuses nationwide, and according to the latest data from the NCAA, Florida State athletics is making the grade. All of FSU’s athletic teams scored above the cut-point of 925 in the Academic Progress Rate data based on the last four years (2003-04 through 2006-07). Two Florida State athletic teams - softball and men’s golf - earned Public Recognition Awards for earning high scores in the latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) compilation. These teams posted multi-year APR scores in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports.

BOBBY BOWDEN FIELD AT DOAK CAMPBELL STADIUM

Stadium Facts • 2008 Capacity 82,300

• Surface 419 Tiftway Bermuda • Location Pensacola Street & Stadium Drive • First Game October 7, 1950 • Opponent Randolph-Macon • Score Florida State 40, Randolph Macon 7 • All-Time Home Record 250-80-4 (.754) • Bowden’s Home Record 160-27-2 (.852)

From a maximum capacity of 15,000 in 1953 to a record crowd of 84,347 in 2005 against Miami, Doak S. Campbell Stadium has risen along with the Florida State football program to the top of the college football ladder. In a special ceremony prior to the Florida game on November 20, 2004, the home of Florida State football took on a meaning even more special when Bobby Bowden Field was dedicated. With the final phase of construction completed, Seminole fans are welcomed to one of college football’s greatest venues. Fans visiting Doak Campbell Stadium in 2008 will once again be treated to more upgrades to enhance the gameday experience. This year the north endzone scoreboard will go from a video board that was 33 feet wide to a new 100 foot wide high quality digital board. The south endzone, which did not have any scoreboard prior to 2008, will get a 24’x45’ video board. Those will not be the only changes. This season 500 feet of ribbon board will be added around the stadium. The LED displays, which are four-feet high, will be placed in all four corners of the stadium. There will also be a ribbon board running under the scoreboard in the north endzone and one just below where the band is located on the south side. In 2007 a new sound system was installed improving the sound quality and smoothness. The system provides high quality sound to each and every person in the 83,000+ seat stadium. The newest structural portions of the stadium are a second deck of the Varsity Club in the northwest corner of the stadium and additional skyboxes leased through Seminole Boosters in the northeast corner. A brand new playing surface was installed in March of 2004. The entire floor of the stadium was excavated eight inches deep and the old pump drainage system was replaced with a complete wall-to-wall system built exactly to USGA golf green standards. The entire field was sodded with the same variety of 419 Tiftway Bermuda that the Seminoles have been playing on for most of the previous 12 years.

The south endzone houses the Florida State school of hospitality education where students in the program receive hands-on experience in various aspects of the food and beverage industry. The multi-level facility includes a restaurant and a sports grill on the top floor that gives a panoramic view of Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium. The north endzone, which consisted of wood bleachers until the 1994 season kicked off, is topped by the offices of the football coaches. The offices are just part of the Daisy Parker Flory wing of the Moore Athletic Center which include a number of amenities for the football staff. An even more drastic change came to completion in June of 2005 when the athletics department offices moved back into the newly rebuilt Moore Center. Towering above college football action from the east side are skyboxes, which stretch from goal line to goal line. New skyboxes are located above the west stands on the eighth floor. The west addition also houses the president’s level on the seventh floor (which includes an open air terrace in the northwest corner) and one of the largest press boxes in college football with seating for over 250 members of the media. A brick facade surrounds the stadium, matching the architectural design of most of the buildings on the Florida State campus. The University Center surrounds Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium and houses numerous offices that were located on the interior of the FSU campus. Inside the stadium, the lowest tier of field level seats were removed, providing increased sideline space and better viewing lines for the first few rows of fans. A matching brick wall was constructed along the east and west sidelines, limiting field access, increasing safety and giving the inside of the stadium a whole new look. In its last 123 home games, FSU is 109-13-1. Bobby Bowden’s Florida State teams have lost only 27 games at home in 32 years, giving the coach an impressive 158-27-2 record and an .850 winning

percentage in Tallahassee. A milestone was reached on September 28, 1996 when Bowden won his 100th game in Doak Campbell Stadium as FSU’s head coach with a 13-0 victory over North Carolina. In 2007 Bowden won his 300th career game at FSU right on the field that bears his name with a 24-16 win over Maryland. But the winning tradition of Doak S. Campbell Stadium, which was named after the former FSU president of the same name, goes back before Bowden. All-time, Florida State is 250-80-4 in 334 home games for a winning percentage of .754. Since the stadium opened on Oct. 7, 1950 with Florida State University taking a 40-7 victory over Randolph-Macon, millions of fans have packed Doak S. Campbell to see the finest in college football action. In 2006, Florida State set a single season attendance mark by drawing 644,256 fans over eight home games. The latest expansion is the ninth in the history of the stadium. The current capacity of 82,300 reflects an increase of 28,281 since the end of the 1991 season. Florida State first began play at Centennial Field during the inaugural 1947 season. In the three seasons that the Seminoles called Centennial Field their home, FSU had an overall home record of 8-4, including Coach Don Veller’s undefeated 8-0 home mark over the 1948 and ’49 seasons. It’s hard to imagine the first Doak Campbell Stadium, with a capacity of 15,000 back 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. Between 1978 and 1982, there were three more additions. Doak Campbell continues to grow and improve and has become a fitting showcase for Florida State University.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF FLORIDA STATE FOOTBALL...

1851:

Florida State University actually began in 1851 when a legislative act established the Seminary West of the Suwannee. The ﬁrst students enrolled in 1857 and the Florida State College was coeducational until 1905 when the Buckman Bill sent all the female students to the “new” Florida State College for Women. The huge numbers of male college students wishing to enter school on the G.I. Bill after World War II forced the legislature to make FSU co-educational in 1946.

1902-04:

33 years after Princeton and Rutgers kicked off American college football, the Florida State College played three seasons of football in Tallahassee. From 1902-1904, FSC played wearing the colors purple and gold. The 1904 squad was crowned state champions after defeating the University of Florida at Lake City and Stetson.

1946:

Florida State University became a co-educational institution in 1946 when the ﬁrst male students were enrolled, most of who were coming back from World War II. The transition from FSCW, which was regarded as one of the nation’s top colleges, to the new institution was remarkably quick and the development of an athletics program was almost as rapid.

1947:

Florida State University fielded a football team in 1947 coached by Ed Williamson. On October 18, 1947, Stetson kicked off to the FSU three yard line. Don Grant returned the kickoff to the FSU 32 and 7,165 fans at Centennial Field celebrated the first football game. The team finished 0-5 on the season.

1948: Don Veller became FSU’s second football coach in 1948 and would

coach the team until 1952. An outstanding player at Indiana University, Veller inherited 20 lettermen from the ﬁrst year, but only 12 would letter in 1948. Veller would lose just two games over his ﬁrst three years, including an undefeated 8-0 campaign in 1950. His attention to detail and high standard for himself and his program were instrumental in FSU getting such a solid start.

Among the players he coached were FSU greats Bobby Renn and Lee Corso as well as a talented tailback named Burt Reynolds whose career was cut short by injury.

1959:

Perry Moss lasted just one season as FSU head coach in 1959. He was hired at a salary of $14,000 and left at the end of the year for triple that ﬁgure to coach the Montreal Alouttes. His staff that year included future head coaches Don James (Washington and Kent State), John Coatta (Wisconsin and Mankato State), Vince Gibson (Louisville, Kansas St. and Tulane), and Ken Shipp (NY Jets). His FSU team posted a 4-6-0 record.

1960-70:

Florida State’s arrival on the national map occurred during Bill Peterson’s 11 seasons as head coach. He came in 1960 when free substitution was still ﬁve years away in the game. He moved FSU boldly into the forefront of the passing game and led the Tribe to its biggest win yet when they topped No. 5 Kentucky 48-6 in 1964. He would post a 62-42-11 record in Tallahassee. Among a host of other things, Peterson developed the concept of the “hot receiver” in 1964 that remains in most offenses today.

1964:

Fred Biletnikoff became FSU’s ﬁrst consensus AllAmerican as a senior in 1964. He ranked fourth nationally with 57 receptions for 11 touchdowns which did not include his four touchdowns in the Gator Bowl win over Oklahoma. Biletnikoff put FSU on the map and he was married under the goalposts at Doak Campbell in 1965. He would go on to have a Hall of Fame career with the Oakland Raiders. The national award given to the top college receiver in the country is named after him.

1966:

Ron Seller’s began a career at Florida State that would prove one of the most proliﬁc in college history. He gained an unheard of 3,979 yards over his career. His statistics were so impressive that most lasted as national records all the way until 1987. He caught passes in 30 consecutive games and averaged 119.9 yards per game. He is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame.

1970:

1950:

Florida State played its first football game in Doak S. Campbell Stadium on October 7, 1950 against Randolph Macon. 9,676 fans watched the Seminoles win 40-7, but the new home field was a story in itself. It was built on a former cow pasture and was completed in just five months. Tallahassean Rainey Cawthon was instrumental in selling over 1,000 season tickets at $50.00 each to fund the stadium and won a wheelbarrow ride down Monroe Street from contractor Red Coleman, who missed the completion date by two days. FSU players painted the stadium over the next summer for $1 per hour.

1953:

Tom Nugent became FSU’s third head coach in 1953 and would coach the Seminoles until leaving to become Maryland’s head coach in 1958. An innovator on a national level, Nugent developed the I-formation and the typewriter huddle used by most teams today.

198

While integration of schools throughout the country came painfully slow, Florida State’s first African-American player took the field in 1970. J.T. Thomas was a starter from the first game he played at FSU and he backed a sterling college career with three Super Bowl rings earned as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

1971:

Larry Jones coached the Seminoles from 1971-1973. An 0-11 campaign in his last year spelled the end for the coach. Among notable players during his era were outstanding wide receiver Barry Smith, quarterback Gary Huff and Alabama transfer Billy Sexton.

1974-75:

Darryl Mudra coached the Seminoles for two seasons and did his work from the pressbox on game day. Perhaps the biggest accomplishment of Mudra’s brief tenure, that included the NCAA mandated scholarship limits for the ﬁrst time, was the signing of an unheralded running back named Larry Key. Key would prove to be one of the ﬁnest running backs in Seminole history.

1976:

FSU president Stanley Marshall and athletic director John Bridgers set up a dinner meeting at an airport hotel in Tampa where

Media and University Information

West Virginia head coach Bobby Bowden was coaching an all-star game known as the American Bowl. They offered him a four-year contract worth $37,500 and he became the Seminoles’ eighth head coach on January 12. Bowden was interviewed for the job six years earlier when it went to Larry Jones, but FSU ofﬁcials felt he lacked the experience.

1979-80:

Florida State got its first taste of the real big-time in 1979 and 1980 going to back-to-back Orange Bowls against Oklahoma. FSU went undefeated (110) over the regular season in 1979, but lost 24-7 to the Sooners and finished sixth in the final AP poll. The Tribe took a 10-1 record into the Orange Bowl showdown the next year before losing a heartbreaker 18-17.

1980:

If one game can be singled out as the most important in the recent run of unprecedented success at Florida State, it would by the contest at Nebraska on September 7, 1980. FSU won in Lincoln by a 18-14 score that opened the eyes of the entire country. Nebraska fans shook of a mixture of shock and confusion to stand and give Bobby Bowden and his Seminoles a standing ovation as they left the ﬁeld.

1999:

Bobby Bowden used to keep an empty picture frame in his office, which was reserved for his first perfect season. He filled the frame with a 1999 team photo. The Seminoles finished the year 12-0 and topped off the record run with a 46-29 win over Virginia Tech for the national championship in the Sugar Bowl.

2000:

Chris Weinke literally rewrote the FSU record book over his senior season and took home the second Heisman Trophy for a Seminole player when he won the award in December of 2000. He would ﬁnish his career with a record of 32-3 as a starter.

2002:

Bobby Bowden passed Bear Bryant into second place on the alltime coaching wins list.

2003:

Bobby Bowden defeats Wake Forest to become all-time winningest major college coach. The Seminoles won the ACC and earned the BCS bid.

2004:

Bobby Bowden Field at Doak S. Campbell Stadium was dedicated on November 20, 2004 prior to the Florida game.

1981:

FSU takes on the following schools in order all on the road: Nebraska, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, and LSU. FSU won at Ohio State, Notre Dame and LSU, but, more importantly, won fans coast to coast for its undaunted spirit.

1981:

In 1981 a freshman tailback named Greg Allen was given the football in the middle of legendary Death Valley with a sea of LSU fans around him. He ﬁnished the day with a remarkable school record 202 yards that signaled the arrival of a superstar for the Seminoles. Later that year, he would rip Western Carolina for 322 rushing yards, which still stands as the best rushing game ever for a Seminole.

1986:

2005:

Florida State wins the inaugural ACC Championship game by a score of 27-22 over Virginia Tech in Jacksonville. Willie Reid was named the game’s MVP. The conference title was FSU’s 12th since joining the league in 1992.

2006:

Deion Sanders spent a quiet ﬁrst two years at Florida State before exploding on the national scene in a preseason press conference. He would become one of the most popular players ever in college football and one of the greatest athletes in FSU history. Florida State and college football would never be the same after Sanders’ career.

1992:

On July 1, 1991, the Atlantic Coast Conference accepted Florida State University, as its ninth member and the ﬁrst addition to the league since Georgia Tech joined in 1978. FSU had competed in the Metro Conference for all sports other than football, which had been an independent. FSU’s ﬁrst ACC football game was a 48-21 win over Duke on September 7, 1992.

1993:

The Seminoles won their ﬁrst national championship behind Heisman Trophy winner Charlie Ward in 1993. FSU played Nebraska in the national title game at the Orange Bowl and used freshman Scott Bentley’s late ﬁeld goal to win 18-16.

The College Football Hall of Fame announced that Bobby Bowden and Charlie Ward would be two of the year’s 15 inductees. Bowden and Joe Paterno, who was also inducted, are the ﬁrst two active coaches to be honored.

2007:

Head Coach Bobby Bowden won his 300th career game at FSU with a 24-16 victory over Maryland.

2008:

The College Football Hall of Fame announced that Ron Simmons would be one of 15 inductees.

1995:

A 31-26 come-from-behind win in the fourth quarter of the Orange Bowl against Notre Dame was FSU’s 11th consecutive bowl win. The streak set an NCAA record as was FSU’s 14-game unbeaten streak in bowls that was spoiled only by a 17-17 tie with Georgia in the 1984 Citrus Bowl.

THIS IS THE ACC The Tradition Consistency. It is the mark of true excellence in any endeavor. However, in today’s intercollegiate athletics, competition has become so balanced and so competitive that it is virtually impossible to maintain a high level of consistency. Yet the Atlantic Coast Conference has defied the odds. Now in its 56th year of competition, the ACC has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. And that is not mere conjecture, the numbers support it. Since the league’s inception in 1953, ACC schools have captured 109 national championships, including 57 in women’s competition and 52 in men’s. In addition, NCAA individual titles have gone to ACC student-athletes 145 times in men’s competition and 92 times in women’s action. The conference had an immediate impact on the national college football scene in the fall of 1953 when the University of Maryland captured the first of what would eventually be five national football titles for the ACC. Clemson laid claim to the league’s second national title in 1981 while Georgia Tech followed suit in 1990. Florida State pocketed national titles No. 4 and 5 in 1993 and 1999, respectively. In addition, Miami has laid claim to five national gridiron titles over the past 22 seasons. Four of the Hurricanes’ five national titles (1983, 1987, 1989, 2001) were unanimous with both the sportswriters and coaches polls, while in 1991 Miami (AP) shared the national title with Washington (coaches). This past season 10 ACC players earned first team All-America recognition, while nine others garnered second or third team honors. The 12 institutions that take to the field this fall under the ACC banner have produced 533 first or second team gridiron All-Americans and 73 first team academic All-Americans. Led by Virginia defensive end Chris Long, the second overall selection by the St. Louis Rams and Boston College quarterback Matt Ryan, the third overall pick by the Atlanta Falcons, the ACC achieved a first for any conference in the NFL Draft, having two of the top four players selected in each of the past three seasons. Over the past three years, the ACC has had more players selected in the NFL Draft (115) than any other conference and, in that time, has had more players taken in the first round of the NFL Draft (25) than any other intercollegiate league. In 2006, the ACC set NFL draft records with 12 first-round selections and 51 players drafted overall. Long, who was the first defensive player chosen in the draft, became the third straight ACC player to achieve that feat joining NC State’s Mario Williams, the top overall selection in the 2006 NFL Draft, and Clemson defensive end Gaines Adams, who was the fourth overall pick in the 2007 Draft, as the first defensive players chosen. No other league has ever had the top defender chosen in the draft for three consecutive years. The ACC also had the most first-round selections in this past year with seven. The 12 current ACC schools have had 2,157 players selected in the annual professional football draft, including 217 first round selections. If success is best measured in terms of wins and losses, then the ACC over the years has proven itself to be among the elite in Division I-A football. The ACC is the nation’s winningest bowl conference as the 12 current league teams are a combined 145129-5 (.529) in post season play. In 2002, the ACC set an NCAA record when seven of its nine teams (78%) received bowl bids. In each of the past three years, the ACC has had eight teams earn bowl invitations, a feat matched by only one other conference. The ACC features four of the Top 12 winningest bowl programs in the nation, including the winningest bowl team in the country in winning percentage with 15 or more bowl appearances in Boston College. The Eagles, who currently have a nation’s best eight-game winning streak in Bowl Games, are 13-6 with a .684 winning percentage. Georgia Tech (6th, 22-14, .611), Florida State (7th, 22-14-2, .605), and Miami (12th, 19-14, .576) all rank among the nation’s elite in terms of bowl winning percentage. In 2007, the ACC exceeded 4.1 million fans (4,141,540) for the second straight year and recorded its second-highest per game average in its history, and highest since 2004, drawing an average of 53,786 fans. In 2006, in eight more home games the Conference had recorded an all-time high in attendance, as ACC teams drew 4,485,625 fans, breaking the existing record of 3,835,260 set in 2005.

2007-08 in Review

The 2007-08 academic year saw league teams capturing four national team titles and 12 individual NCAA crowns. In all, the ACC has won 43 national team titles over the last 12 years. The ACC has won two or more NCAA titles in 26 of the past 28 years. A total of 140 ACC teams placed in NCAA post-season competition in 2007-08. League teams compiled a 119-69 (.633) mark against non-conference opponents in NCAA championship competition. In addition, the ACC had 188 student-athletes earn first team All-America honors this past year. Overall, the league had 303 first, second or third team All-Americans. In addition, the ACC produced 11 national Players of the Year and five national Coach of the Year honorees.

The Championships

The conference will conduct championship competition in 24 sports during the 2008-09 academic year - 12 for men and 13 for women. The first ACC championship was held in swimming on February 25, 1954. The conference did not conduct championships in cross country, wrestling or tennis during the first year. The 12 sports for men include football, cross country, soccer, basketball, swimming, indoor and outdoor track, wrestling, baseball, tennis, golf and lacrosse. Fencing, which was started in 1971, was discontinued in 1981. Women’s sports were initiated in 1977 with the first championship meet being held in tennis at Wake Forest University. Championships for women are currently conducted in cross country, field hockey, soccer, basketball, swimming, indoor and outdoor track, tennis, golf, lacrosse, softball and rowing with volleyball deciding its champion by regular season play.

A History

The Atlantic Coast Conference was founded on May 8, 1953, at the Sedgefield Inn near Greensboro, N.C., with seven charter members - Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest - drawing up the conference by-laws. The withdrawal of seven schools from the Southern Conference came early on the morning of May 8, 1953, during the Southern Conference’s annual spring meeting. On June 14, 1953, the seven members met in Raleigh, N.C., where a set of bylaws was adopted and the name became officially the Atlantic Coast Conference. Suggestions from fans for the name of the new conference appeared in the region’s newspapers prior to the meeting in Raleigh. Some of the names suggested were: Dixie, Mid South, Mid Atlantic, East Coast, Seaboard, Colonial, Tobacco, Blue-Gray, Piedmont, Southern Seven and the Shoreline. Duke’s Eddie Cameron recommended that the name of the conference be the Atlantic Coast Conference, and the motion was passed unanimously. The meeting concluded with each member institution assessed $200.00 to pay for conference expenses. On December 4, 1953, conference officials met again at Sedgefield and officially admitted the University of Virginia as the league’s eighth member. The first, and only, withdrawal of a school from the ACC came on June 30, 1971, when the University of South Carolina tendered its resignation. The ACC operated with seven members until April 3, 1978, when the Georgia Institute of Technology was admitted. The Atlanta school had withdrawn from the Southeastern Conference in January of 1964. The ACC expanded to nine members on July 1, 1991, with the addition of Florida State University. The conference expanded to 11 members on July 1, 2004, with the addition of the University of Miami and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. On October 17, 2003, Boston College accepted an invitation to become the league’s 12th member starting July 1, 2005.

SEMINOLE TRADITION

DUNN NAMED 2005 NO. 1 GOOD GUY IN PRO SPORTS AND NFL MAN OF THE YEAR

BOWDEN AND WARD INDUCTED INTO COLLEGE FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME

Former Seminole tailback Warrick Dunn of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was named the 2005 No. 1 Good Guy in pro sports by The Sporting News. It’s the second such award Dunn has received as lhe was recognized by the NFL with the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award in 2004 for his efforts to help those less fortunate. Dunn started a foundation to help single mothers soon after he entered the NFL. Through his “Homes for the Holidays” program, the Warrick Dunn Foundation has secured new homes for more than 70 single parents in Dunn’s hometown of Baton Rouge, La., as well as Tampa Bay, Atlanta and Tallahassee. The FSU Hall of Fame member now joins former Seminole Derrick Brooks, who was No. 1 on the The Sporting News’ 2000 Good Guy Award’s list.

In August of 2006 the Wall Street Journal published the findings of what the paper labeled “The Dow Jones College-Football Success Index”. The study sought a different way to determine the success of college football programs by determining how many of a school’s alumni made it to the NFL and how effective those players were once they made it to the National Football League. Florida State not only finished No. 1 in their index but the Seminoles blew away the field. FSU finished ahead of its nearest competitor by 11% causing the paper to exclaim “No contest”.

HE HAS WON AWARDS AND NOW HE IS AN AWARD

A new national award, named after Florida State football coach Bobby Bowden was initiated by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes organization in 2003. Named after the legendary FSU football coach, the National Bobby Bowden Award highlights the collegiate football player who best epitomizes the term studentathlete. The person selected will be one of character, classroom excellence, athletic achievement and community involvement. This award combines the role modeling of the NFL Player of the Year Award, the Heisman for best collegiate player performance on the ﬁeld and the CoSIDA Academic Award for classroom excellence. The award is presented annually during the week of the BCS Championship game. The Fellowship of Christian Athletes will compile the nominees each year.

ANDREWS INDUCTED INTO ALABAMA SPORTS HALL OF FAME

Defensive Coordinator Mickey Andrews was one of eight individuals inducted into the State of Alabama Sports Hall of Fame in 2006. A native of Daleville, Alabama, Andrews played collegiately at the University of Alabama. He earned second team All-American honors as a wide receiver and defensive back. He was also an All-SEC choice in baseball. In 1964, he received the Hugo Friedman Award as the Tide’s best all-around athlete. He has been involved in ﬁve national championships (two as a player at Alabama ’61 and ’64, as head coach at Livingston ’71 and two at Florida State ’93 and ’99). He was inducted with Joe Ciampi (basketball), Jim Davenport (baseball), Tim Flock (NASCAR), Mia Hamm (soccer), Lionel James (football), Buddy McClinton (football) and Bob Veale (baseball).

PRODUCING THE NFL’S TOP PLAYERS

Seminole Head Coach Bobby Bowden and Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Charlie Ward were inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2006. The 2006 class included 13 All-America players and two legendary coaches. Florida State University was the only school with two inductees. The College Football Hall of Fame 2006 Class was inducted at the 49th Annual Awards Dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City in December and was ofﬁcially enshrined at the Hall in South Bend, Indiana, during ceremonies held in the summer of 2007. Bowden and Ward were joined by Bobby Anderson (RBColorado), Bennie Blades (DB-Miami), Carl Eller (T-Minnesota), Steve Emtman (DL-Washington), Thomas Everett (FSBaylor), Chad Hennings (DT-Air Force), Chip Kell (OG-Tennessee), Mike Phipps (QB-Purdue), Mike Rozier (RB-Nebraska), Jeff Siemon (LB-Stanford), Bruce Smith (DT-Virginia Tech) and Emmitt Smith (RB-Florida). Penn State’s Joe Paterno joined Bowden as the two coaches inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. This year a sixth Seminole made the hall when nosegaurd Ron Simmons was named a member of the most recent class of inductees.

SEMINOLE QUARTERBACK PAJCIC GIVES TO THE WARRICK DUNN FOUNDATION

Florida State alumnus and former quarterback Gary Pajcic made a sizable contribution to the Warrick Dunn Foundation at the Seminoles’ annual spring game in 2006. Although separated by a couple of decades, both Pajcic and Warrick Dunn were star football players who later made it a priority to give back to their communities. The two former players met on Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium during the annual Garnet and Gold Game to help others in need. Pajcic, on behalf of FSU and his law ﬁrm Pajcic and Pajcic, presented Dunn with $100,000 for the Warrick Dunn Foundation — an effort to expand the “Homes for the Holidays” program that he started after being drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1997. Pajcic passed away at the age of 58 just months after making his generous donation.

AFCA RECOGNIZES FLORIDA STATE FOR GRADUATION RATE

Florida State was among nine Atlantic Coast Conference schools who were recognized for graduating at least 70 percent of their football student-athletes according to the American Football Coaches Association annual Academic Achievement Awards data in 2006. SMU won top honors with a 100 percent graduation rate while Boston College and Duke were among six Division I-A institutions with a graduation rate of 90 percent or better. The ACC led all conferences with nine schools on the honors list, followed by the Big East and Big 12 with four.

FSU PRESIDENT WAS A FOOTBALL STAR

Florida State president Dr. T.K. Wetherell starred on the football ﬁeld from 1965-67. Wetherell was coached by Bobby Bowden as a wide receiver in his ﬁrst two years. The president was part of two of the longest kickoff returns in school history. In 1965, Wetherell took a lateral from Bill Moreman and raced 100 yards for a touchdown against Kentucky. The two pulled off another touchdown of 94 yards in a 23-20 victory over Miami on Sept. 24, 1966. He is still tied for the school record for the longest kickoff return.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL’S WINNINGEST COACH

Media and University Information

DOAK CAMPBELL SEATS 82,300

New structures in the north endzone have raised the seating capacity in Doak Camp-bell Stadium once again with the home of the Seminoles now holding 82,300. A second deck of the Varsity Club opened in the northwest corner of the stadium just above the existing structure. A mirror image of that has been built in the northeast corner of the stadium, but contains skyboxes leased through the Seminole Boosters. The new additions brought the total to 94 private boxes within the stadium. The football home for the Seminoles since 1950, the stadium was named after the popular Florida State president who was instrumental in the development of intercollegiate athletics at the new university. In order to help ﬁnance the stadium, a ﬁve-year season ticket was offered for $50.00 and FSU players helped paint the stadium at $1 per hour. The stadium was built at a cost of $250,000 in 1950.

The Bill Peterson era as head football coach at FSU was a time of great offensive innovation and of many firsts for the upstart Seminole program, including the first Seminole coach to beat the Gators at Florida Field, coaching the program’s first All-American in Fred Biletnikoff and recruiting James Thomas, the first black player to ever play football at FSU. A tradition of the Peterson era was to enter the field through the goal posts. As a tribute to the players and coaches of the Peterson era and their many firsts, “H” style goal posts were added to the field at Doak Campbell Stadium prior to the 2002 season and will forever more be referred to as “Pete’s Posts.” It is believed that FSU joins LSU as the only two Division 1A schools currently using H posts.

ACC ...........................Florida State (12) Big East.................................. Miami (8) Big 10 ............................. Ohio State (7)

With 373 career victories, Florida State head coach Bobby Bowden has more wins than any other coach in major college football history. Bowden, in his 31st year at FSU in 2006, passed Penn State’s Joe Paterno on the list with a 4824 victory over Wake Forest in 2003.

GOAL POSTS SALUTE PETERSON

Derrick Brooks established himself as one of the greatest players in school history during his career at Florida State. He also made a name for himself academically as a First-Team Academic All-American in 1994 and the winner of an NCAA Post-Graduate Scholarship. He has also established himself as one of the ﬁnest players in the NFL and led his Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the World Championship in 2002. Now he is the boss — sort of. Brooks is in his ﬁfth year as a member of Florida State’s Board of Trustees having been named to the board in 2003.

Media and University Information “UNCONQUERED”

Dedicated October 10, 2003, Fritz White’s bronze statue “Unconquered” was designed to captured the indomitable spirit of the Seminole people and those who have adopted that spirit as a symbol for their university. The massive structure including its granite-covered pedestal base stands approximately 31 feet in the air and depicts a spear-brandishing Seminole astride a rearing horse. At sunset the night before each home game, the spear is ignited and burns until sunrise on the next morning after the game. George Langford endowment of the project for up to $1 million helped make the statue a reality. Fifty one artists were then considered before White eventually saw the statue dedicated 10 years after the concept was inspired by attorney and FSU graduate Stephen Reilly’s trip to South Bend, IN for an FSU football game.

BOWDEN IN BRONZE

SEALED LOCKERS

SCHOLARSHIPS IN ’51 The retirement (or permanent sealing) of lockers in the Florida State lockerroom began after Deion Sanders‚ senior season in 1988. The criterion for locker retirement allows only the dressing area of a two-time consensus All-American and/or Heisman Trophy winners to be retired. Ron Simmons (1979-80), Deion Sanders (1987-88), Marvin Jones (199192), Derrick Brooks (1993-94), Sebastian Janikowski (1998-99), Peter Warrick (1998-99) and Alex Barron (2003-04) have had their lockers sealed as two-time consensus All-Americans while Heisman Trophy winners Charlie Ward (1993) and Chris Weinke (2000) have had their lockers retired. The lockers are encased in glass with the player’s final home uniform and gear intact right down to the sweat bands.

It was not until 1951 that Florida State began to grant athletic scholarships. The move put added pressure on the program to win. FSU left the Dixie Conference and petitioned for membership in the ACC and the Southeastern Conference but were rebuffed. Interestingly, it was the University of Florida that sponsored FSU for admission to the SEC.

SPORTSMANSHIP STATUE

SEMINOLES FIRST TO SCORE TWO

Head coach Bobby Bowden is bigger than life in front of the Moore Athletics Center at Florida State as a bronze statue of his likeness on the ﬁeld was unveiled in a ceremony on Sept. 24, 2004. The statue is one and a half life-size of Coach Bowden. The statue was sculpted by Tallahassee artist Stanley Proctor. The artist has also created a smaller piece of artwork, measuring just over 12 inches high, featuring Bowden and Doak Campbell Stadium.

NO NEW HOME FOR BOWDEN

Bobby and Ann Bowden live in the same home that they bought when he took the FSU head coaching job in 1976, although they have made some additions. They have even had the same phone number for the past 30 years. Bowden still maintains a grueling offseason schedule that includes a 24-stop Seminole Booster speaking and golfing tour. Bowden is an early riser generally waking before 4:30 a.m. He reads and often watches film before coming into the office. He plays golf nearly every day from the end of spring practice until after the family vacation in July then does not touch the clubs again until the next spring.

salary of $37,500 per year. Many did not know, however, that Bowden actually interviewed for the FSU job in 1970. It went to Tennessee assistant Larry Jones who was 15-19 over three seasons before he was succeeded by Darrell Mudra in 1974.

Between Gates B and C of Doak Campbell Stadium stands the one ton, 15’ tall Sportsmanship statue given in honor of Pappy Strum by his daughter Margaret Strum Allesee, who is an FSU graduate and former Seminole cheerleader. The enduring symbol of the most important aspect of athletic competition was sculpted by FSU alumnus and accomplished artist Edward Jonas.

The late Vic Prinzi, who is a member of the Florida State Hall of Fame and was the color commentator for the radio network until his death in 1997, was the ﬁrst college player ever to score a two-point conversion. In 1958, the Seminoles took the season-opening drive of the Tennessee Tech game on September 13th in for a touchdown and Prinzi, playing quarterback, ran in the two-point conversion to beat the other national games by just minutes.

FOOTBALL SINCE 1902 ACTUALLY

COULD HAVE HAD BOWDEN IN 1970

Bobby Bowden signed his ﬁrst contract as head coach at FSU on January 12, 1976. The four-year deal called for a

Florida State College did play football during the 1902-1904 school years and played well indeed. The ﬁrst

Two-Thousand Eight Florida State University Football

game in 1902 was a 5-0 win over South Georgia Military on November 21 when touchdowns were worth five points. The NCAA nor the governing body at the time recognizes the early games for FSC, although the school won the state championship in ’04. The 1904 season included a 23-0 win over Florida in Lake City. The school then became the Florida State College for Women and would remain one of the nation’s top all-female institutions until the large number of returning veterans from World War II triggered the state system to open Florida State University to men in 1946. The school resumed football in 1947, taking on Stetson in its ﬁrst game.

THREE DIFFERENT HELMETS

For one season in 1962 the Florida State Seminoles took the ﬁeld with three different helmets. Coach Bill Peterson’s three-team system featured the two-way Chiefs, the defensive Renegades and the offensive Warriors. Each group wore a different helmet. By 1963 the Seminoles were back to just one helmet, an all-gold version which once again lasted just one season as the word “STATE” was added to the helmet in 1964.

14 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

HISTORY OF SCHOOL COLORS

Florida State’s school colors of garnet and gold date back to the Florida State College championship football teams of 1904 and 1905. In those championship seasons, FSC donned purple and gold uniforms. When Florida State College became Florida Female College in 1905, the football team was forced to attend the University of Florida. The following year the FFC student body selected crimson as the ofﬁcial school color of 1905. The administration in 1905 took crimson and combined it with the recognizable purple of the championship football teams to achieve the color garnet. The now-famous garnet and gold colors were ﬁrst used on an FSU uniform in a 14-6 loss to Stetson on October 18, 1947.

Florida State’s women’s programs were brought to national prominence in the early 1980s when the Seminoles earned five national championships in four sports within a four-year period. The golf program earned the AIAW championship in 1981 while the softball team had back-to-back AIAW titles in 1981 and 1982. The women’s track and field program ran away with the 1984 NCAA Outdoor and 1985 NCAA Indoor championships. Florida State’s other national titles include men’s gymnastics in 1950-51 and again in 1951-52. The men’s volleyball team won the national championship in 1955 and 1957, while football claimed a No. 1 ranking in 1993 and 1999. Most recently, the men’s track and field team took home the 2006, 2007 and 2008 national outdoor title.

TOMAHAWKS CAN BE WON AND LOST

FSU FIGHT SONG

While the war chant has become familiar at FSU games, the Florida State ﬁght song still remains the definitive sound of Seminole sports. FSU’s band became the Marching Chiefs in 1950 and with that came the ﬁght song. Tommy Wright, a member of the faculty in the School of Music, was perturbed that the Seminoles had been using “On Wisconsin” and the “Notre Dame Victory March” so he introduced the song in the Sewanee game, setting to music a poem by FSU Alumni Doug Alley.

OSCEOLA & RENEGADE

Perhaps the most spectacular tradition in all of college football occurs in Doak Campbell Stadium when Osceola charges down the field riding an Appaloosa horse named Renegade and plants a flaming spear at midfield to begin every home game. The tradition was born on September 16, 1978 against Oklahoma State when a student led the team from the tunnel riding a horse. Since the beginning of the FSU tradition, three different horses and 10 different riders have actually appeared at a game. However, there have been a total of 16 horses trained in the Renegade program. The original Osceola and Renegade were Jim Kidder and Reo. In 2003, local businessman Bill Durham, who had trained the riders and horses for 20 years, passed the honor and responsibility to his son Allen, who was a former rider in the 90s. The clothing and rigging that Osceola and Renegade use were designed and approved by the Seminole Indian Tribe of Florida.

WAR CHANT

Florida State’s coaching staff and academic staff award tomahawks to individual players for great plays or contributions on the field and in the classroom. Players may get a tomahawk for a crucial play, a score, a touchdown, saving tackle or various other achievements on the field. In 1997, the Seminoles began receiving tomahawks for outstanding academic achievements as well. They look identical except the word academics runs down the handle of the tomahawk. What many fans don’t know is that Florida State players can lose tomahawks as well. Poor performance on the field or in the classroom can cause a player to be stripped of the coveted decals.

The graphics in the end zone of Doak Campbell Stadium have been synonymous with Florida State since they debuted versus East Carolina to open the 1984 season. The graphics were the brain child of Leslie Pantin, Jr. Pantin is a FSU graduate, a member of the Board of Trustees, a senior member of the Orange Bowl Committee and a former president of that group. He approached former FSU Athletic Director Hootie Ingram to complain about the look of the ﬁeld. Ingram told Pantin ‘if you don’t like it come up with something better’. Pantin did just that. With the help of graphic artist and fellow FSU alum Pablo Mejia, the two came up with the design that has graced Bobby Bowden Field the last 25 years.

Florida State’s “war chant” appears to have begun with a random occurrence that took place during a 1984 game against Auburn, but in the 1960s, the Marching Chiefs band would chant the melody of a popular FSU cheer. In a sense that chant was the long version of FSU’s current “war chant.” During a thrilling game with Auburn in 1984, the Marching Chiefs began to perform the dormant melody. Some students behind the band joined in and continued the “war chant” portion after the band had ceased. Most agree the chant came from the fraternity section, but many spirited Seminole fans added the hand motion to symbolize the brandishing of a tomahawk. The chant continued among the student body during the 1985 season, and by the 1986 season, it was a stadium-wide phenomenon. Of course, the Marching Chiefs refined the chant, plus put their own special brand of accompaniment to the “war chant,” for the sound we hear today. Atlanta Braves fans took up their version of the song and chant when former FSU star Deion Sanders came to the plate as an outfielder. The Kansas City Chiefs first heard it when the Northwest Missouri State band, directed by 1969 FSU graduate Al Sergel, performed the chant while the players were warming up for a game against San Diego.

FLORIDA’S SEMINOLES: THE UNCONQUERED PEOPLE

By Barry Ray FSU Office of News and Public Affairs As a people, few have prevailed ovemore trying circumstances than the Seminole Indians of Florida. Over the course of almost two centuries, Florida’s Seminoles endured three wars with the U.S. government, resisted numerous efforts to relocate them to federal reservations in the West, and ultimately made their home in one of the world’s most inhospitable environments, the Florida Everglades. That they have not only survived, but thrived — all while maintaining their fierce independence and rich culture — is a tribute to their courage and perseverance. This is their story. Long before European explorers ever visited the area now known as Florida, native peoples had been living here for thousands of years. In fact, as many as 100,000 members of four Indian nations — the Apalachee, the Tequesta, the Timucua and the Calusa — were living in highly organized settlements throughout the peninsula when the Spanish first arrived in 1513. The native peoples’ lack of resistance to smallpox, yellow fever and other “European” diseases, as well as later slaving raids from the English colonies of Georgia and South Carolina, eventually decimated their numbers. By the mid-18th century, the Indian nations of Florida had ceased to exist. In their place, groups of Indians from a confederation of tribes collectively referred to as the Lower Creeks began moving into Florida from Alabama and Georgia. They had been pushed out of their former homes by the encroachment of white settlers, as well as by conflicts with other tribes. It was around this time that the name “Seminoles” first appeared; there are several possible explanations as to its origins. When the first English speakers began arriving in Florida in 1763, they found many Creeks living as yat’siminoli, or “free people,” across the northern part of the Florida peninsula. (“Yat’siminoli” was a term used in the Mikisúkî, or Miccosukee, language, which still is spoken today.) The settlers may have simply ignored the Indians’ separate tribal affiliations and called them all Seminolies, or Seminoles. Others believe that the Seminole name comes from the Spanish word cimarron, meaning “wild men” or “unconquered.” The Indians may have been given this name because they had escaped from slavery in the Englishcontrolled colonies to the north. With the end of the American Revolutionary War in 1784, English-speaking settlers began moving southward in ever greater numbers, buying or seizing land from the native inhabitants. By 1813, some of the Creek tribes in Alabama rose up against the white settlers and the Indian tribes that supported them. This conflict, known as the Creek War of 1813-14, proved disastrous to all of the tribes. U.S. troops led by Gen. Andrew Jackson crushed the uprising and forced a treaty on the Creeks that took more than 2 million acres of land from them. Several thousand Creek warriors and their families migrated south into Spanish Florida, where they and the Seminoles increased their resistance to white settlement. In 1814, such conflicts escalated into the first of three Seminole wars. Over the next four years, Jackson illegally entered Spanish Florida numerous times to burn Seminole villages and kill resistance leaders. With the end of the First Seminole War in 1818, many Indians moved further into Florida. By 1820, the year before Spanish Florida became a U.S. territory, there were at least 5,000 Seminoles, Creeks and Mikisúkî people living here. However, a series of federal treaties failed to protect their rights and, in 1835, war broke out again.

The Second Seminole War (1835-42) proved to be the longest, most costly, and the last of the U.S. wars of Indian removal fought east of the Mississippi River. It also would be the first guerilla-style war faced by U.S. troops. Led by the fierce warrior Osceola, the Seminoles were aided by runaway slaves, who received protection from their allies in return for a portion of the agricultural staples that they grew. These so-called “Black Seminoles” also had a reputation as fierce fighters, and were equally determined to preserve their freedom. The fighting ended in a stalemate in 1842, and an uneasy peace lasted for 14 years. In 1856, however, Seminole leader Billy Bowlegs and his followers were provoked by U.S. soldiers. They retaliated, and the ensuing series of skirmishes became known as the Third Seminole War (1856-58). When U.S. troops once more withdrew — again with no treaty or victory — the Seminole Wars finally ended. All told, more than 3,000 Seminoles had been forcibly removed from Florida to the Western territories of Arkansas and Oklahoma. As few as 300 remained in Florida, and they took refuge within the dense swamps of the Everglades. However, their place in history was assured as the only American Indian tribe never to have signed a peace treaty with the U.S. government. From the 1920s onward, as the development boom exploded in South Florida, the Seminoles lost more and more of their hunting lands to tourists and settlers. They became agricultural workers in the vegetable fields of South Florida, and also ran tourist attractions, wearing their colorful patchwork clothing, producing souvenirs and wrestling alligators. On Aug. 21, 1957, the Seminole Tribe of Florida was established through a majority vote of Florida’s Seminole Indians. This vote gave the Seminoles federal recognition as a self-governing tribe with a constitutional form of government. The Seminole Tribe of Florida now has almost 3,000 members living on five reservations across the peninsula at Hollywood, Big Cypress, Brighton, Immokalee and Tampa. The Seminoles work hard to be economically independent. Tourism and gaming profits pay for infrastructure and schools on their reservations, while citrus groves, cattle agriculture, aircraft production, tobacco sales, land leases and aquaculture are other significant sources of revenue. Having persevered through two centuries of adversity, the Seminole Indians of Florida have earned the right to call themselves “the unconquered people.” Their indomitable spirit is one that Florida State University proudly seeks to emulate in all of its endeavors.

The Symbol: Seminoles

Florida State would play two games in 1947 before students demanded the school acquire a symbol. While details conflict, most believe the account of a poll of the student body is accurate. The Florida Flambeau reported that Seminoles had won by 110 votes over Statesmen. The rest of the top contenders (in order) were Rebels, Tarpons, Fighting Warriors and Crackers. In the 1950s, a pair of students dressed in Native American costumes and joined the cheerleaders on the field which eventually evolved into the majestic symbol of Osceola and Renegade that FSU now enjoys. Today, the Seminole Indian Tribe participates in many campus activities. Florida State University is proud of its longstanding cooperative relationship with the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The Seminole people have suffered many hardships and injustices, but they have remained brave, dignified and proud. The Seminoles are unconquered. They symbolize what we hope will be the traits of all of our graduates, including our student-athletes.
