7-6 and an Emerald Bowl win is NOT what FSU fans expected. But as of now Bobby Bowden is recruiting as good as ever in getting the best H.S. junior in the state of Florida including some other top-notch Florida prospects that he could land on National Signing Day 08. FSU is on the way back up.

People need to rate a better team

Ill go ahead and say im a florida fan so i could be biased. However Florida state is the cheatinest bunch of people ive ever seen. From the coaches and players right down to the referees. How do you recruit and get everyone of the best players in high school football to go to a now mediocre school? 4 words, strippers, beer, drugs and dillards.

Evil trilogy of college football: Miami, Florida, Florida State

Ganstas, druggies, and quarterbacks who think they're GOD!? Plus a coach that really needs to kick the bucket pretty quick! and by the way, can you say DILLIARDS!?

Go Noles!

Is Bowden dead yet?

sucks

Overrated.

the noles are dead

A good team, but with all the alleged corruption and questionable recruiting tactics, they should never lose. You would think they would pay a member of the Brazilian National Soccer to kick field goals. It's almost comical to see them blow a big game every year due to a missed field goal. Don't particularly like the fans (was treated rudely by the FSU fans at Joke Campbell Stadium in Talla-ass-hole as a visiting Temple fan)

Sure, they may be 6th now, but like Miami they'll fall fast.

pure evil. everything wrong witgh not only college football, but a microcosm of all that is wrong with the world. the one thing that keeps college football from being perfect is the involvement of these criminoiles...also, the reason they have some success against florida/miami is because, when you play 2 meaningful games a year, it isn't very difficult to channel all your energy intoi those games. when you play a real schedule, esp like florida, and the conference championship actually means something, a rivalry game against a cheap in-state opponent takes on a lot less importance. when the ncaa finally gives this school the death penalty, all will finally be in balance in the universe.

best program

Free Shoes University... the poster boy for what is wrong with college sports today! They can win games (except against Chucky from NC State) but they are fortunate that they play in the All Carolina Conference 'cause they are .500 against real teams.

the crimi-NOLES are a disgrace to college football

They have a coach that allows outlaw behavior to run rampant in the program. Gambling, rape, assault, shoplifting, you name it. He's gotta go. No respect for that program.

CRIMINALS!!! All florida teams are criminals but this one is the king ot them. Bowden is Satan!

Goes to show you how dumb and biased Florida State fans are. The coach is only playing for the record which he doesn't deserve to and won't get. Besides Notre Dame, they play in the weakest conference in America. The college has to help its players through classes because they are too dumb to learn anything. This is one of the most overrated football teams in America and the fans are too dumb to realize skill when they see it. Otherwise, they would like a team from Florida that is actually good such as Miami or Florida. And I hope that everybody that does that gay tomahawk chop gets their arm cut off.

4 wins and they aer playing in the BCS? It was a definite down year for the ACC, and its a shame the FSU gets one of those spots instead of a better team.

Deion Sanders Derrick Brooks Warrick Dunn and Peter Warrick, thats all i have to say. Noles are my favorite team by far

I strongly dislike the football program, but if we're supposed to be rating teams on results, you have to give Florida State five stars. It's amazing what Bobby Bowden has accomplished there. Every year they dominate, and every year they attract another top recruiting class. Sure a lot of the players get into trouble, but it seems like that's happening to almost every major collge athletic program these days.

FSU plays in a tremendously weak conference, but they manage to win continuously against Miami and Florida.

Outfreakinstanding..! OK, I'm an alum, so I'm biased. The best record of any school over the last decade. Fourteen straight ten-win years, a record they extend every year. Class coaching staff. Defending and soon-to-be-recrowned MNC. Plans are well into implementation to ensure that FSU goes from football dynasty to perpetual contender in all sports as Saint Bobby nears retirement. And just plain fun. Who else could pull a punt-rooskie..?!?

Now lets talk about a classy team and coach. There have been some fine players to emerge from this institution. All I can say is that I love the 'Noles!

They are okay. They have the oldest QB there ever was. They have cool colors and a tight chant.

It's where I wanted to go to school so I could be a part of a winning football team. The Seminoles are also where good players turn great.(Dion Sanders)

Everybody knows Florida St. is the toughest team to beat in college football next to Nebraska. I like them because the opponents they face have no chance. Bobby Bowden as a coach is great and he knows how to bring the talent out in people and pump fear into other teams' hearts. Which gives him an advantage over other teams.

A great football team because of their great coaching and the great defense that they play.

Florida State is one of the best football schools ever. They have a great coaching staff and their recruiting is the best in the nation. That is probably why they have so many national championships. They always have a candidate for the Heisman as well.

I think they are one of the best football programs in the nation. Winning or losing, so many people of greatness played there.

They have won the most games in the 90's. Always have players that go to the NFL. Currently have the best quarterback in the country. They are the defending national champ.

This team is awesome. Hands down the best team in the 90's era. They have unbelievable speed and awesome coaching in Bowden. Be aware they will be contending for the championship this year.

Always a college powerhouse. They get all the top recruits from Florida, where they breed good football players. Coach Bowden also attracts other out-of-state recruits.

This football team is one of the best around. A few years ago they were ranked #1. Now they are not ranked as high. Part of the problem is that the top teams are overrated, which is wrong and they need to recognize Florida's talent.

They have the wise fifth year senior who knows when, and where, and who to out the football into. The Florida Seminoles have a pretty well balanced attack. I predict them to be in the bowl against Michael Vick and the Hokies. The Seminoles are a well coached team thanks to Bobby Bowden. They have Rose Bowl appearances every year and I think that they have a real chance to be in the bowl against the Virginia Tech Hokies. They will compete but not win.

Hands down the best program in the country. Year in and year out, FSU is battling for the national championship. No other program in the country has had the success that the Noles have had over the last 10-15 years. If memory serves me, they've been in the top 5 (or maybe top 3) each year since like 1990 or something. In addition, if you were to team up current NFL players by what school they went to, FSU would have the best team by far.

Simply the highest caliber of college football for the last 14 years.
