Should be a good game. FSU has the big time mojo with Bowden leaving and the Gator Bowl giving 300 plus tix for FSU alumni players to sit in endzone.
WVU should win but talent doesn't always beat emotion.

I know there have been some issues along the way with Bobby, but the man has had a pretty incredible coaching record for many more years than most guys last in this dog eat dog business. I would like to congratulate coach Bowden on a long and impressive career and wish he and his wife and family, all good things in his retirement. Plus, I think if you checked, you would find many who would have nothing but nice things to say about the positive impact Coach Bowden has had on their lives, both inside and outside of football.

LETS GO NOLES!

Hopefully FSU can step up and play big today. It will be sad to see Bobby go after this game.

Bowden is a class act all the way. He was here at West Virginia when the Marshall plane crashed, and he helped to save that program. I've never heard anyone say anything bad about him.


Sad to see he is going to have to lose his last game.

FSU played really well in that 2nd half. Hopefully they can keep it up and get the lead here after halftime.

West Va should be winning this game by much more than this.

What a great win for FSU. I'm sad to see Bowden go but I'm glad he got to go out with a win. GO NOLES!

Wow. The only reason I watch this crappy game is for the after game interview with Bowden and CBS microphones screw that up. LOL

Classic Bill Stewart. You are up 14-3 and he lets up and allows FSU to completely dominate the game.

If there is a worse coaching staff in the country I'd like to see it.

Kinda funny to read all of the early posts about how FSU was going to get stomped.

Great to see Bowden go out with a win, he deserved it. Many thought Florida State didn't belong in the game, I guess that's why you play em!

Well they were 6-6 and had an awful offense and awful defense. No reason to think they would win.

WVU was far better on both sides of the ball. The big handicap was the head coach who proved he can single handedly lose a game.

eers the offense really wasnt awful just Manuel wasn't ready to play yet this season and he got thrown in there and hadn't done well yet but he sure came up big today. But when FSU Defense started playing like it did in the 2nd Quarter all I thought was where has this been all season and if they can keep this up I will be impressed it was also a great way to send Micky Andrews out with a performance like that.

Yeah I hated that the microphones always screwed up when they were interviewing Bowden.

FSU's defense lacked talent up front on the line but they had some pretty good players in the back.
