I would say without a doubt, the Florida-Florida State rivalry was probably the rivalry of the 1990s as most of the time, this game had national title implications for one or even both teams.
This was basically a playoff/play in game for the national title. From 95-00 Always played killer games that came down to the wire mostly too. With the winner of this game at least playing for the natty in 93,95,96,98,99,00! And FSU would’ve played in 97 had they won. Such a high stakes rivalry During that period. I miss when the big 3 Florida teams were annual natty contenders.
Peter Warrick…….damn. Dude was as close to unstoppable as anyone could be. This entire team was just one giant All American. Janikowski, Tommy Polley, Travis Minor, Snoot Minnis, the WHOLE offensive line. Just unreal.
Back in the good old days when you could go undefeated and didn't have to worry about a bunch of nerds in a conference room of a Dallas Marriott screwing ya.
Two plays in that game Block punt and snap over the QB head was difference in that game plus FSU had a 39 year old QB😂😂 great game tho them games back then was fun to watch
That was one hell of a football team. I wish Tennessee hadn’t f*cked up against Florida on a stupid 4th down play call. I truly believe Florida State was the most talented team that year, but Tennessee was second and there should’ve been a rematch in the title.
Ya both Doug Johnson and him were top QB recruits in their recruiting class both fsu & Florida loaded up in state & nationally at top 5 level these days just before Miami got their head out of their butts till 2005 peach bowl & haven't been same besides old orange bowl home field advantage gone with half the stands empty lol
