Had someone told you in the late 90s and early 00's - FSU


Nov 18, 2020, 8:29 AM

That we'd be entering a game against FSU by 2020 favored by 35 points on the road would you of had a hard time believing it?

FSU now leads the series 20-13 against Clemson. That's still a decent lead, but at this rate it's starting to feel realistic that we'll even up the series within the next 10-15 years if not sooner. Had anyone told me that in the late 90's I would have thought they were crazy. Keep in mind that FSU led the series 14-2 going into the 2003 game, and had won 11 straight games in the series.

Back in 1993, a buddy and I went down to Florida State for the football game. Florida State won the game 57-0. These 3 guys sitting behind us kept ragging us the whole game. I told them to remember this when Clemson is dominating them one day. I hope they remember the way they treated us, and what I told them.

backed up to the 3 yard line and the QB was in their EZ. The QB (was that Kannell or Weinke?) faked a hand off and just stood there with the ball hidden for what seems like an eternity. He hit a man for a huge gain or maybe a TD. It was an awesome play. Tigers never recovered and victory slipped away.

I also remember FSU pounding the Gamecoots at Willy B in the 90's. I think it was right before they joined the ACC. That game made me smile.

Nov 18, 2020, 11:28 AM

Clemson and I was so frustrated we could not win one, especially after being at 1988 and 1989 games. It felt like Clemson would never recover after Ford. I guess that is how FSU feels now. I hope they endure 20 years of it (at least) like we did.

The High Road. . . . in winning!

I completely understand your point of view about "not rubbing it in right now"! The Gamecocks fans I know deserve it though.

I am not sure as to the depth the Seminoles would go to rub it in your face; but the Gamecocks on their "little 5 year run" were truly unbearable! It was the most disgusting thing you ever saw!

Lots of points of views on this subject - I understand both sides! I do. For me though; a Gamecock fan I don't know, I am generally not looking to rub it in "too much"! Some of the ones I know who talked all that "noise" get it 199% back how they gave it"!

through all of those beatdowns - with a LOT of them in person, I mean A LOT . . . .

The semiholes are my gamecoots . . . . I have a hard time relating to all the animosity towards the chickens because they have been so irrelevant to us for so long.

BUT - I don't live amongst those loosers.


I live amongst semiholes . . . . and during that truly unbelievable timeframe of the 90's & such . . . . it was unbearable in a 100 different ways.


And NOW ? ? ! ? ! Never in a million.


And I have tried to be a gracious winner and remember the way those shoes felt that I had to wear for a LONG time.

Besides - it's HARD at times to find a semihole now that I can rag on ! ! ! It's awesome !
