Curb stomping the gators in the sugar in 2000/2001.

Good one, I was gonna say the 04 bowl game against the UF.

 

[umhurricano]

Any of our close games during national title runs. BC in 2001 is iconic for the final play, but Dorsey's worst ever game could have destroyed that season. I believe we also had a close win against BC in 1991. Unfortunately the 8-7 win over Arizona is irrelevant because we **** the bed in the Sugar Bowl after the 1992 season.

The other game I think of is the one where TMac blocked the punt at WVU in the end zone (1996?) when they should have just taken a safety.

Also the 2003 Orange Bowl with the fake punt to DJ Williams.

If fsu had beat OU, I think we may have been voted #1 by the AP.

"Criteria is it has to be a win that to this day rarely gets talked about

Plus it had to be a win that had subsequent significance"

Lot of the games I see don't even come close to these 'rules'.

Duke '12

Not sure if serious, but i think this is a huge win............imagine if we had loss.

 

[ACKCANE]

12-7 win over East Carolina in 83 --- **** near ruined the whole Schnelly thing.

20-16 over USCe in 87 --- ditto for Jimmy.

Michigan State almost beat us in '89. If they had, the FSU loss later would've put us out of it.

Was there a brawl in that game?

I was at the 8-7 win against Zona ... They missed a FG on the last play, right?

That is a truly forgotten game against a team that didn't take any ****. Michael Irvin vs Sterling Sharpe, and yes, there was a big *** brawl. Brian Blades **** near cold ****ed the Carolina quarterback from behind during the melee and after things settled down, the kid threw an interception. The crowd was crazy for blood that night to say the least.

Another tough game right there. That was the one where Erickson broke his finger I believe and Gino had to take over.
